But unfortunately, some lipids are not imaged (at least 18, 25 and 53). I tried using trjconv but it needs a topol.tpr that i don't have :-(

Any hint ?

It requires some manual work, but with editconf you can translate a subset of atoms, so you have to find out which atoms they are, and then write an index file, and then translate them by one box.

It works now !

Just for the record, here are the steps i did to obtain a usable file:

1 - editconf -f dppc64.pdb -o dppc64_pbc.pdb -pbc

At this step, 4 lipids are not correctly imaged (18, 23, 25 and 53). The problem is the same for all of them, one palmitoyl tail is not imaged to its counterpart. I presume this comes form the way the algorithm tries to guess the tail to image. 3 DPPC (18,25 and 53) need to get their tail back via a -x translation, DPPC 23 needs a -y translation. To perform this:

2 - editconf -f dppc64_pbc1.pdb -o dppc64_pbcx.pdb -n grouptomove_x.ndx -translate -4.7245 0 0

3 - editconf -f dppc64_pbc1.pdb -o dppc64_pbcy.pdb -n grouptomove_y.ndx -translate 0 -4.2319 0

4 - edit manually the files to correct the coordinates.

If there's a need, i can do a better explanation and provide files on my website, feel free to ask.

Thanks for the help,

Stéphane
