Hello again,

I centered it and then did the calculation again for minimum image distance but still it showed the same graph as without centering.

Have you followed the kind of workflow suggested here? http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Periodic_Boundary_Conditions

I tried visualising it
using vmd but could not see any such clashes. since I am new to vmd
I do not know whether it is possible to calculate such clashes if at all
in vmd? I am using dodecahedron box. can it be visualised as it is in vmd?

Yes, one can be visualized, but some preparation with trjconv -ur compact (as hinted at in trjconv -h) is a good idea.

Thank you

            Dear users,

            I was trying to simulate a protein dimer covalently bond with
            a disulphide bond (230+230 aa long). I used usual protocol
            as used for simulation of a monomeric protein, using gromacs-
            4.5.3, dodecahedron box, tip4p water model and protein to
            box distance of 1 (-d in editconf). In the middle of the
            simulation
            when i checked for minimum image violation there was huge
            clashes. I am extremely sorry I have been asking regarding
            this
            many times but in this it is a dimer and I am not sure
            what mistake
            I have done because this happened while simulating another
            dimer
            also though not sever. Hence I seek some guidance from this
            community regarding the problem. I attach the graph herewith.
            Kindly help. Let me know if I need to give any other
            information.


        Please see my post from yesterday for a more detailed reply to
        this exact same type of question.  I am beginning to suspect
        there's a problem with g_mindist, but I have no solid evidence
        for that claim, just a hunch.  It looks like your protein
        crosses a periodic boundary and that messes up the
        calculation.  Please center the protein in the box with
        trjconv -center and re-analyze to see if there are any
        differences.
