Thanks Justin

I'll try to do that things.

Some addition questions

1) About nvt and apt equilibration

As I understood ref_t of the system must be equal to temperature of the phase transition of the specific LIPID. But in the npt and nvt.mdp files there are severl enties for ref_t ( for some system groups in index.ndx )
For my system composed of protein dmpc and water :

    ref_t   = 323     297    323            ;

Does all this values in mdp file must be equal ( to the temperature of the lipid phase transition)
ref_t   = 297     297    297
or each value must correspond to the temperature of phase transition of the individual element ?
    ref_t   = 323     297    323            ;

Does thic correct for both NPT and NVT ensembles ?


It is incorrect to set different groups at different temperatures. Whatever result you obtain would be completely unrealistic.

        Justin,

        Could you tell me what difference in inflategro parameters (
        cut-off for lipid removing and scaling factors) should I make
        for insertion protein in another bilayes in comparison tu tutorial ?


    I've never made any changes; it's always worked just fine.


        Now I'm working with DMPC. I've inserted symmetrical alpha
        helices protein in this bilayer but inflategro deleate 2 lipid
        from upper and just 1  from lower layer. It's strange because I
        suppose that equal bilayer molecules would be removed :o


    The number of lipids that are removed will depend on the starting
    configuration of the membrane and thus where lipids are relative to
    the protein. Theoretically, a symmetrical protein should delete an
    equal number of lipids from each leaflet, if the geometry of the top
    and bottom leaflets is comparable.  Either try placing the protein
    at a different location to achieve equivalent removal or manually
    delete a lipid and be sure to equilibrate adequately.



        On Inflategro's sites I havenot found such specifity for above
        parameters for different bilayers :(


    The cutoffs specified are simple grid search parameters.  They do
    not necessarily need to be altered depending upon the lipid type.
