Dear All,


I'm new to Gromacs and have some questions to learn the answers. I study on one type molecule. If I want to add lets say 240 molecules, which is the best way to use editconf or genbox ? And I learned the procedure of using more than one type of molecules in gromacs. But I'm not sure, so I'm waiting for your contributions. Assume that I have two small organic

In general, the topol.top should consist of the #include statements for each .itp file, then the [ system ] directive should contain a count of each molecule.

Use editconf to set your box size, and genbox -ci -nmol to insert what you need.

molecules like hydrocarbons X and Y. I think First I will have to get seperately DRGGMX.ITP and DRGPOH.PDB for the each molecules in different

If these come from PRODRG, they will probably require manual modification and validation of their contents.

work directories. Then chose one directory ( X ) and do the operations like in ''GROMACS Tutorial for Drug – Enzyme Complex'' Then in this command


genbox –cp X.pdb –cs Y.pdb –o gmx.pdb –p gmx.top



If you are using X as the solute and Y as the solvent, then yes, this is fine. It is just like solvating a protein in water (if X = protein, Y = water).

After I get gmx.pdb gmx.top files I will add #include “Y.itp” and editing the number of Y molecule and go on ..


Correct.

Could you please help me to learn the true process of using more than one type of molecules in gromacs ?



Sincerely
