Hi,

You are probably mixing "resid" and "residue". In VMD, 
 - "resid" is taken as found in the file (pdb, gro, etc). You may have several 
residues with the same "resid" if you load a file with multiple chains.
 - "residue" is generated internally by VMD, it is incremented by one unit for 
each residue, even if there are gaps in the sequence, it always starts at 0 and 
is granted to be unique for each residue.

Cheers,
Rui Rodrigues

Dear All,

I found a strange thing about VMD. When I use mouse label residue from graph 
(Mouse --> Label --> Atom), i would get a correct residue as it is in .gro 
file, while when I use graphics --> representations --> selections, then the 
residue selected here is totally different with the one which has the same 
number in the .gro file.

Be careful with it, everybody.
Jiangfeng.

Dear Friends,

I want to measure some data of a special residue, for instance TRP143, from my 
MD result. But i encountered a problem.

The residue number 143 is ordered in .gro file, while it seems the residue 
orders is random in gromacs. It points to another residue when I specify 
residue number 143 in VMD or when I am using make_ndx program ( --> r 143; q). 
Apparently, gromacs numbering system is not based on the orders in the .gro 
structure file.

Does anybody know how to link the gromacs order to the structure file's order 
correctly?

Thank you in advance,

Jiangfeng.

Depending on the Gromacs version you're using, residue numbering is treated
differently.  In pdb2gmx, you can choose to renumber the residues from 1 or not.
  The default is to not renumber the file.  You should check to see what you did
with respect to this option and whether or not your coordinate file is numbered
from 1.  If it is not, then what you think is residue 143 may not be interpreted
that way by all external programs, depending on whether or not they respect the
numbering of the .gro file.

Another possible reason is due to vmd, which numbers the residue from 0. 
Residue 143 in gromacs corresponds to residue 142 in vmd.
