Hi!

I'm new to Gromacs, so maybe my answer is not 100% correct, but it seems to me that you forgot to create the required insu_pwi2MM.gro file. In your last pdb2gmx command you just created insu_pwi2MM.pdb, and then the last grompp command cannot found the insu_pwi2MM.gro file. I think you have to repeat the last pdb2gmx command in order to create the .gro file, something like

pdb2gmx -f insu_pwi.pdb -p insu_pwi.top -o insu_pwi2MM.*gro* -inter –merge -ignh

(the same command you have written but with different output file)

Dear Justin,

I am absolutely sorry for the discomfort. Since this is the first time I am using Gromacs, so things are not clear to me so I am trying things very randomly thats why I could not keep update the things. Here I restarted every thing and have a look at and let me know your suggestions:

pdb2gmx -f insu.pdb -p insu_p.top -o insu_p.pdb –ter –merge

(since I removed all the hydrogens in my starting insu.pdb so didnt used -ignh here)

editconf -f insu_p.pdb -o insu_pb.pdb -box 6.0 6.0 6.0 -center 3.0 3.0 3.0

genbox -cp insu_pb.pdb -cs spc216.gro -o insu_pw.pdb -p insu_p.top

grompp -f eminimization.mdp -c  insu_pw.pdb -p insu_p.top -o MM_insu.tp

genion -s MM_insu.tpr -o insu_pwi.pdb -conc 0.008 –neutral

pdb2gmx -f insu_pwi.pdb -p insu_pwi.top -o insu_pwi2MM.pdb -inter –merge -ignh

grompp -f eminimization.mdp -c insu_pwi2MM.gro -p insu_pwi.top -o MM_insu.tpr



The following is the error:

    It would be helpful if all of this was on one thread, with replies
    embedded.  I have sent several replies to your questions, all of
    which have gone unacknowledged.  It makes it very difficult for
    anyone (myself or someone else) to give advice if we don't know
    what you're doing or what you've tried.  Even if something didn't
    work based on what I, or anyone else, tells you, it is nice to
    know that "I tried this, but I still have a problem, which is
    shown here: (exact error/warning/problem)."

    As I've said before, exact procedural details of what you've done
    are essential for sorting out strange problems like this.  This
    means - *exact* (copy and paste) command lines from pdb2gmx, and
    any error messages you receive.  Also, any manipulations you have
    made to your input .pdb file.  It seems to me that you've probably
    edited your file to have only one chain identifier, and hence why
    pdb2gmx is trying to make everything one molecule.

    The -merge option of pdb2gmx is what you want (see pdb2gmx -h).
     If the following command line doesn't work, it would be nice to
    see an exact reason (i.e., copy/paste from the
    error/warning/whatever):

    pdb2gmx -f (input).pdb -ignh -ter -merge

    I got the above to work perfectly on an insulin structure I found
    in the RCSB (1ZNI), after deleting chains C and D from the .pdb
    file.  If your structure continues to give you headaches, try this
    one to make sure that your Gromacs installation is working
    properly (something I inquired about several days ago...)

        HI,

        When I use the merge command along with pdb2gmx to form inter
        disulphide bonds between two different chains, its removing a
        water molecule to connect the two ends. Its like forming a
        peptide bond which I dont wish. Is there any way to tell to
        gromacs, to create the inter dishulphide bonds without
        creating the peptide bond between the two chains ?
