Re: Regarding minimization of a protein

If you fix the backbone atoms of protein during minimization, the secondary
structure does not change. However, in a few cases when the initial
configuration of the peptide appears helical or sheet-like structure (But
not secondary structure by DSSP) then a slightly secondary structure
appears in those peptide segments during minimization. You should check
whether you have used the backbone fixation or not for minimization.
