Dear Justin, 1. They are the same protein ( 2 copies of the same protein)
2. The order in the .gro file seems fine... Basically it lists the co-ordinates of a single copy of peptide and then the solvent molecule ... I presume since the .top file has 4 copies of the same molecule, this is how the .gro file should look ? 3. Also is there an easier way of dealing with the modification of number of solvent molecules ( since the co-ordinates involve a factor of 3 arising out of the description of SPC atoms ... ) Thanks > > - > From: Justin A.
