A method is described that allows experimental \(S^2\) order parameters to be enforced as a time-averaged quantity in molecular dynamics simulations. The two parameters that characterize time-averaged restraining, the memory relaxation time and the weight of the restraining potential energy term in the potential energy function used in the simulation, are systematically investigated based on two model systems, a vector with one end restrained in space and a pentapeptide. For the latter it is shown that the backbone Nā??H order parameter of individual residues can be enforced such that the spatial fluctuations of quantities depending on atomic coordinates are not significantly perturbed. The applicability to realistic systems is illustrated for the B3 domain of protein G in aqueous solution.

Refinement against order parameter with XPLOR
New 2.10 release of XPLOR-NIH can now do a refinement against order parameters. You can get an idea what this refinement can be used for from the this paper.
Info about new features of XPLOR-NIH 2.10 from XPLOR-NIH website: - new parameter/topology file naming convention: NMR protein refinement should now use topology file protein.top and parameter file protein.par.
- new command: tclXplor which calls xplor -tcl. Can be used as command interpreter
- new potential term OrderPot to enable refinement against order parameters.
- update to PrePot from Junji Iwahara
- CSAPot: 15N CSAs...
