Thank you so much for your help , my pdb file says that gen_seed = 473529 so i will change it to different numbers , but i saw online that

Your .mdp file, you mean?

some gen_seed = -1 and that to generate random seed is that correct ??

Yes, with -1 you will get a random number based on the process ID.

also please how i can control the starting initial states so that i can have starting from more one initial states?? tried looking it up on line but did not find that much information.

If you generate different velocities, then that is a different state. If you want to control what the velocities are (to some degree), then set gen_seed explicitly. If you want to start from a different configuration, build a new starting structure.

Thank you so much

Keep the temperature the same and change gen_seed.

Probably to evoid the repulsive interactions between the end of the peptides , please correct if i am wrong as my chemistry is not good, my one trimer is made of 3 peptides that ends with GLU LEU LEU and the other trimer ends with is LEU GLU LEU , should i worry about neutralizing the c and N termini

Just as you wouldn't run a single experiment on the bench and call it conclusive, so too is it true of simulations - if you run just one simulation, how do you know you're not seeing the one outlier in the data set?
