Rigid body from multiple chains
Hi,
I would like to model a protein with multiple chains (A,B,C,D) as an entire rigid body. Unfortunately I cannot find a way to do this, it seems like that a rigid body can only contain one protein chain. Is there any method to create my desired model?
Thanks in advance, Kornel

Sure, that's straightforward. A rigid body is simply represented internally as a set of particles - it doesn't care whether those particles are in the same chain or different chains. You don't say how you're doing the modeling, but if you're using a PMI topology file, just use the same rigid body number for all of the domains.
