Is anything recent to account for (and eliminate) clashes - if any - resulting from solvating a system of protein partly immersed into a canonical DPPC bilayer? That is, the solvation water faces three different environments: the extracellular portion of the protein, the two water layers of DPPC, and the DPPC molecules themselves.
I was comfortable to this regard (in all-atoms) with Chimera followed by Amber minimization. I have to re-educate myself with gromacs-martini. With cg Chimera has so many limitations. I assume (for cg) that the box should first be defined with editconf and then solvation (-cs water.gro) carried out with genbox. thanks francesco On Tue, Dec 1, 2009 at 6:37 PM, XAvier Periole <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Dec 1, 2009, at 6:33 PM, XAvier Periole wrote: > >> >> you do not need itp file. in the top you'd find the parameters for >> the water. > > I mean in the top file you'll find the reference to the martini??.itp file > where the water is defined. >> >> On Dec 1, 2009, at 6:26 PM, Francesco Pietra wrote: >> >>> I forgot to ask, in additio to below, where to find the .itp file for >>> cg water.
