Hi
I have figured out the vacuum slow problem. It turns out I was using PBC
in vacuum with PME. It is now fixed.
The other problem is still there. My protein has 2 chains. one chain is
simply a glutamate residue. Its charge (both terminii charged is -1.11
instead of -1). here is the section of the topology with the charges.
Why does pdb2gmx assign a charge of -1.11 instead of -1 if there is a
free glutamate molecule with NH3+ and COO- at the terminii ?
You're not choosing the termini correctly. Use -ter with pdb2gmx and select the
zwitterion forms of both termini.

Hi
I have a protein whose topology I built using pdb2gmx with the -ss
option and the opls-aa force field. When I run grompp, the total
charge on the protein is reported as 2.9 (not 2.999). Why a
non-zero charge? Does this have something to do with the disulfide
bridge?
Something is materially wrong, like mangled termini. Have a look at
the resulting structure.
Secondly, when I run a simulation of the same protein (7000 atoms)
with certain restraints in vacuum, the simulation runs very slow.
I am wondering why. I am not using particle decomposition. the box
size is 50 x 50 x 50 nm. Using 4.5.3
Have a look at the end of the .log file for some performance data.
How are you assessing "very slow"?
