You will require a .tpr file for many analysis tools. In some cases, you can get away with a .ndx file. Check g_thistool -h to see what is mandatory input. You can make a .ndx file if you have a .pdb using make_ndx -f my.pdb -o my.ndx and then select your groups. If you need a .tpr file, then you will need a gromacs .top topology file to run your .pdb and .top through grompp and generate the .tpr. Generating your .top may be simple if you have a simple system. Try downloading the amber forcefield that is formatted for gromacs and running your .pdb through pdb2gmx while selecting that amber ff in order to generate a .top file.

Note that if you need a .tpr file this is all going to require that you learn how to use gromacs and will not be completed in one afternoon.

The gromacs manual is quite good.

Dear All,

I'm planning to use Gromacs for analysis with Amber trajectory files ( mdcrd, rst files ). And I found a script that converts Amber mdcrd files to Gromacs-compatible .xtc files. I want to learn that if Gromacs-compatible .xtc files are enough to perform an analysis using Gromacs tools ? or Will I have to have some other files for analysis in Gromacs ? I?m waiting for your suggestions and helps.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Sincerely
