Hi Justin

The difference in my 


g_select -s molecule_in_water.pdb -select '"Close to ISO" resname SOL and 
within 0.5 of group "ISO"'

and your

g_select -s molecule_in_water.pdb -select '"Close to ISO" resname SOL and 
within 0.5 of resname ISO'

is, that the last ISO is not in quotation marks. Could you please explain? 


With your command I got this time no error but I got other stuff that I don't 
understand: 


1.)
I got this warnings:

WARNING: masses and atomic (Van der Waals) radii will be determined
         based on residue and atom names. These numbers can deviate
         from the correct mass and radius of the atom type.


WARNING: if there are broken molecules in the trajectory file,
         they can not be made whole without a run input file


Can I ignore this or is this serious? 


2.)
My output is one file called size.xvg. It contains

# This file was created Sat Apr 14 16:55:56 2012
# by the following command:
# g_select -s molecule_in_water.pdb -select "Close to ISO" resname SOL and

      0.000  848.000


What is the interpretation of this? What I need is a new pdb. file that has to 
contain only the molecule ISO and the water layer SOL around it. Is this 
possible with g_select?

Thanks for helping me. 

Greetings
Lara



p.s.
I use yahoo. I tried to find an "answer to all" option or something like that. 
Again after pressing answer the mail should go only to Justin. I put the 
mailing list in cc. Is here someone using yahoo also and know how to fix this?

The above command assumes "ISO" is a default group, like "Protein" or something 
else.  You can make selections based on any arbitrary residue name with 
something like the following:

g_select -s molecule_in_water.pdb -select '"Close to ISO" resname SOL and 
within 0.5 of resname ISO'

Does that work?
