Thank you for your help, I tried to do as indicated in the link to send to me, but it seems that it didn't change anything. Could you show me an example, to better understand what I am doing wrong?


It would be better for you to show us what you tried, along with whatever evidence suggests the restraints didn't work. There are several examples provided in the manual, so the only things I would post as examples are already available.

Thank you

Dear gmx users,

I try to use gmx to make some minimization. Unfortunatly, I have some SS
bonds which are not formed in my PDB because the S-S atoms are too far away
to connect to each other. I saw at that page :
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Making_Disulfide_Bonds that it
is possible to force GROMACS to make bonds with sulfur atoms by adding a
distant constrains between the atoms.


Note that constraints and restraints are different.

http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Constraints_and_Restraints

But I didn't understand in which file it should be inserted and at which
step. Can you help me?


If you want to restrain S-S distances to force a more amenable geometry for disulfide formation, what you need are distance restraints in the .top:

Refer to the manual section and figures cited on that page for more information.
