We can use GMIN to explore the energy landscape of our peptide and find interesting structures (endpoints) to connect using OPTIM and PATHSAMPLE. Copy the coords.prmtop and coords.inpcrd files you just made into a new directory, and add the following file:

See the GMIN documentation for the explanation of these keywords!

The line "igb .." species the Generalized Born implicit solvent model used. For vacuum, use igb=0 and delete "saltcon" keyword.

min_md.in - the AMBER (SANDER) settings for molecular dynamics (used to generate new conformations for basin-hopping)

You can run GMIN now to generate some low energy structures:
