Dear Gromacs Users,

thanks for all your suggestions. 

Tsjerk, I did try your idea, but unfortunately doesn't seem to work.

the pdb file is shared here : 
http://www.4shared.com/account/file/ijofD83b/DIMER.html

newpdb2gmx -f DIMER.pdb -chainsep interactive -ignh 

Fatal error:
Atom OXT in residue CYS 283 was not found in rtp entry CYS with 11 atoms
while sorting atoms.
.


Part of the file is pasted below:

Hi,

There should be only one OXT per chain. Removing those seems like a good idea:

sed -i '/^ATOM.*OXT/d' file.pdb
(Remove all lines starting with ATOM and containing OXT, in the file)

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk
