Hi all!

    I have this protein GFP that I'm working and right now a co-worker of mine 
is fixing the parameterization of the chromophore which is the middle of the 
protein and so my research professor asked me to run a simulation with the 
chromophore cut out of the protein. So I took my pdb file of the GFP molecule 
and with the vi editor deleted all the chromophore atoms. I then used 

pdb2gmx -f gfp.pdb -ignh

which created my basic topol.top file among other basic files that the command 
produces.

I then used the command

editconf -f gfp.pdb -o gfp.pdb -c -d 5 -bt decahedron

which created my box with no problems. I then proceeded to generate water 
molecules with this command...

genbox -cp gfp.pdb -o gfpW.pdb -p topol.top -cs spc216.gro

lastly I then used to try to minimize my GFP and thats where things went wrong.

grompp -f em.mdp -c gfpW.pdb -p topol.top -o gfpEM.tpr

The warning I received was 

Fatal error:
number of coordinates in coordinate file (gfpW.pdb, 258012)
             does not match topology (topol.top, 344648)

I don't get this because I used the pdb file that was used to generate the 
topology file and then I continued to tell gromacs to modify the two files 
simultaneously after generating water for my box. I am new to gromacs and 
finding tutorials that give you all the information you need is near 
impossible. I've read the gromacs manual as well and its not very helpful. 
Please let me know what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks!
