Either one should work, just be aware that make_hole.pl was designed for an older version of Gromacs (3.1? 3.2?), and I believe some difficulties have been reported when using it with Gromacs version 3.3.x. To use genbox is trivial; orient your protein appropriately and use your POPC structure as -cs input. There have been lots of discussion about how to do this and the problems people have faced. No doubt you have seen these, since you have been searching the archive :-) -Justin ======================================== Justin A.
