My usual advice is to center on *one* monomer, rather than on the whole protein. For the few frames where the dimer jumps across a pbc edge, the center of mass of the protein will be somewhere in solution.

Subject: vmd-l: PBC issue
Hello,
I am working on a 100 ns simulation trajectory file of a dimer protein (NAMD) and facing a pbc issue.
1. When the trajectory is loaded on the psf, the chain A and B of the dimer protein are stable for the first half of the simulation. But later they get separated for a few frames in between and again join back.
commands used for this - pbc wrap -center com -centersel "protein " -compound residue -all
2. But now the chains are getting mixed into one another. They are interlocked in one another for a few frames in the second half of the simulation.
Please let me know a solution to solve this and have a smooth trajectory.
Thank you,
Aditi
