Hi, I'm newbie in Gromacs and MD, I'm reading the Tsjerk excellent
tutorial. In the part of Addition of Ions, Tsjerk said that we need to
edit the topology file and the decrease the number of solvent
molecules, and add a line specifying the number Na+ and Cl-. How can I
do this? Let me explain, in the topology file I have:
[ molecules ]
10565 ; Compound #mols
10566 Protein_A 1
10567 SOL 198
10568 SOL 10277
I'm guessing the numbers in the left-most column (10565 - 10568) are
superfluous line indicators, otherwise they will be problematic :-)
What genion does is replace water molecules with the ions you
specified. So, for each ion added, subtract one water (SOL) molecule.
You can also merge the SOL definitions into one, there is no reason for
crystal waters(?) to be distinct from any others. You will end up with
a [molecules] section that looks like:
Protein_A 1
SOL 10475 - x - y
NA+ x
CL- y
(substituting, of course, the appropriate names for your ions).

What number I need to change? and what it's the fomat to add the ions
Na+ and Cl- to topology file?
Thank you very much.
Andres.
