Dear Gromacs Users!



I'd like to change default protonation state of some specified Glu and Asp residues im my protein.

By defaylt pdb2gmx -ignh create unprotonated state of the negatively charged residues but I want to make 2 of such residues protonated to mimick some intermollecular interactions.

How I could make such edition to my structure ? Is it possible to make such changing AFTER pdb2gmx processing of my structure ( manually editiong GRO or PDB file and TOPOLOGY)?


It is possible, but would be an extreme hassle and would be very error-prone. You'd have to add in the new atoms, renumber *all* subsequent bonded and nonbonded interactions.

The better approach is to re-create the topology with pdb2gmx -asp -glu.
