Workflow Type: Common Workflow Language
Stable

Common Workflow Language example that illustrate the process of setting up a simulation system containing a protein, step by step, using the BioExcel Building Blocks library (biobb). The particular example used is the Lysozyme protein (PDB code 1AKI). This workflow returns a resulting protein structure and simulated 3D trajectories.
