Indeed. You will need to create a moleculetype that contains both/all 
the molecules of interest. Note that atom numbers within a moleculetype 
must be unique.

Thank you Mark. The problem is, in order to use the couple-moltype option
for decoupling, I want to keep the two proteins in separate moleculetype(s).


Now I noted that Gromacs has a pull option for doing umbrella sampling, but
I don't know how it might be used to apply distance restraint between two
atoms belonging to two molecules.

Any susggestions on how the pull code can be utilized is very much
appreciated!

Warren

Hi Warren,

if you want to use distance restraints, the two proteins must be in the
same gromacs molecule. AFAIK, it is impossible to use distance
restraints between atoms of different molecules. Altermatively, you may
want to consider bonds of type 6 (not subject to lincs).

pdb2gmx -merge is useful to create the topology of a molecule that
actually contains 2 proteins.

If the two proteins must be in different gromacs molecules, you would
have to use the pull code.

Best,
Jochen

Hi Jochen,

Thanks a lot for the information, I appreciate. I will merge the two
proteins into a single moleculetype and apply the distance restraint, as you
suggested. Although I could try use the pull code, I am not sure if they
interfere with free energ (lambda) code which I am also using.

With best wishes,

Warren
