Yup. Initially I was just confused on how to parameterize the protein using the MARTINI ff. I thought there was an automatic way to do it using pdb2gmx only to see Gromos force fields available. But now I realize I have to generate the .itp file using the perl script. Anyway, I've got it figured out :). Thanks for your concern though.
