I would like to perform a two layers QM/MM energy minimization (DFT/Amber). Is it possible to freeze the atomic coordinates of the model system exclusively during the low level steps (i.e. the classically treated atoms that are also considered by the QM part)? In case it is possible, how should the input be set?
