The whole story continues to emerge... :-)

You're probably experiencing this problem because you're trying to process two separate proteins with one pdb2gmx command. You will need to separate (i.e., using a text editor) chain A (whatever protein) from B&C (insulin). Process them separately with pdb2gmx, using -merge with the insulin portion. What you'll have to do is then concatenate the output structure files (again, text editor or Unix 'cat' command), and include the insulin topology within the topol.top from Protein A. See Chapter 5 of the manual for more details on this, but it is essentially analogous to including a ligand topology (.itp) within a system topology (.top).

Dear users,

Thanks a lot to Justin and a few others who really helped me in successfully running insulin. Now, I am trying to setup the input file for insulin with other enzyme and I am trying to merge the two chains of insulin. I am using the following command:

pdb2gmx -f insu.pdb -p insu_p.top -o insu_p.pdb -inter -merge -ignh

it is asking whether to merge (A &B, B&C). I allowed it to merge B&C they are insulin chains and A is the rest of the enzyme. With the above command after adding all the protons to LYS etc.., it complains the folling:

Segmentation fault: pdb2gmx -f insu.pdb -p insu_p.top -o insu_p.pdb -inter -merge -ignh

It says like its creating the pdb and top files but nothing it could.

The same command works fine if I remove -merge and its also worked well with insulin chains.

I have enough space to run this too.

Please let me know the suggestions.

Ram.
