Dear Users,
I am simulating a membrane protein with charmm ff with a 2fs time step.
How the results will be affected if I use a 5fs time step by using "-vsite
hydrogen" option in pdb2gmx? Do my results loose their accuracy if I use
this option?

Well, it's easy to test. The membrane properties that are expected to be observed are very easy to quantify. We didn't test our CHARMM36 port with virtual sites at all, so we cannot recommend such usage. Test thoroughly before doing any real production work. Membranes are extremely sensitive to alteration.
