I transfer gro files from linux to windows through SSH secure shell program. I added 10 Na ions by genion command but in gro file following case is appeared:

If an unrequested Cl is being added, then that is worth investigating. What was your *exact* genion command?

Does the VMD error result in the edited file, or the one that has the additional Cl atom?

I deleted last line. I am using amber03 force field in gromacs program to study interaction of pr-dna.


Then I know that your model is wrong. You have no N-terminal protonation whatsoever! Think about biology before plowing ahead with computer programs that are only capable of doing what you tell them. Under AMBER, terminal residues require a prefix, i.e. NGLY (and CXXX for the C-terminal residues). This has been stated many times across this list, and is clearly in the ffamber documentation. Did you perhaps use the -missing flag with pdb2gmx when you got an error message?

Perhaps this extra, unwanted, Cl atom is being added by genion because you have some bizarre fractional charge on your molecule?
