Not that it matters much, I'm just confused. 1.39213 1.42723 0.0 (dividing above value by half and half), You're doing more than dividing by half, and a zero length for the z-dimension is nonsensical. Do not manipulate the box vectors yourself. now my protein is at the center of inflated popc. but the area per lipid even after inflation is still only 0.148 nm2. The small area per lipid is a consequence of the massive reduction in the box size that your manual vectors impose. should i use editconf with the whole .gro file containing protein, popc or i have to separate my protein only as a new.gro file and perform editconf and then cat? When I build these systems, I do the following: 1. Note the box vectors in the bilayer coordinate file (don't modify them) 2. Position protein in a box with those same vectors and (if necessary) translate its coordinates using editconf -center or editconf -translate/-rotate as needed. 3. Concatenate the protein and bilayer coordinate files and adjust number of atoms accordingly. -Justin -- Justin A.

I placed my protein inside the popc bilayer (developed using Charmm GUI) in the exact position using SYBYL , same as what is done in the "building unit cell" part of the KALP tutorial and with the satisfied orientation of protein. Then the final pdb with protein, popc and water molecules is used to produce a .gro file using pdb2gmx tool. later I tried to do "Inflategro" to remove the unwanted lipid molecules interacting with my protein, but i was not successful because, when i visualize my .gro file of system-inflated, my water molecules are still present and my protein is out of from my lipid box and when i shrink the bilayer, the protein is completely lost! could you please give me an idea to do a proper inflated and deflate in my case? thank you!! ~Saravanan -- MSS -- gmx-users mailing listgmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users * Only plain text messages are allowed! * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting! * Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.
