Sir,

    I am studying the dynamics of membrane proteins using KALP-15 in DPPC.
Now I am confusing with the following ( shown at botom) part of the
tutorial.Here minimization means to minimize system_inflated.gro, is it
right? Then without .epr and .top files of system_inflated.gro how can I do
this?


You should have a topology of the system, and .mdp files are provided so you can assemble a .tpr file and run minimization. Individual commands are not provided at this point in the tutorial, because (as stated at the beginning of the tutorial) it is expected that the user is familiar with a basic Gromacs workflow, how to execute grompp and mdrun, etc.

Subsequent minimization steps are performed on system_shrink*.gro files in the same manner.

perl inflategro.pl system.gro 4 DPPC 14 system_inflated.gro 5 area.dat

Note how many lipids were deleted and update the [ molecules ] directive of
your topology accordingly. Run energy minimization. Then, scale down the
lipids by a factor of 0.95 (assuming you have used default names, the
result of the minimization is called "confout.gro"):

perl inflategro.pl confout.gro 0.95 DPPC 0 system_shrink1.gro 5 area_shrink1.dat
