Mark,

what about the next sollution

firstly I'll align both of my structures ( x-ray with water and another my model without water)

than I'll copy aligned water from first structure to my model in the bottom of the GRO file.

than I'll minimise this editted structure to relax side chains of the residues wich are in contact with the new waters

Might this aproach be usefull? Commonly I use it to prepare protein-ligand complexes.

Might work, but there are lots of steric issues and potential problems.

    Up! :)

    Please provide me with the best sollution of my problem! I just
    want to copy some water mollecules from X-ray structure to my
    model and place it in the identical possitions inside the TM
    budle of my protein.  What are the most trivial way to solve this
    task?

    You have a non-trivial problem. You can either build the model on
    the structure that has the waters (pdb2gmx doesn't strip water,
    IIRC), or work out some geometric criteria for placing the waters
    afterwards. Not every problem has an existing tool for its solution.

        Dear Gromacs Users!

        I want to perform simulation of the membrane receptor in the
        membtane environment. There are some evidence about precense
        of the functional-relevant internal water mollecules in the
        transmembrane alpha-helix bundle of the receptor.


        I want to take into account that internal water in my model.
        I have coordinates of the X-ray structures wich have all that
        water. Also I have perfect model of the same protein wich
        have not that water but have full-length structure ( there
        are some missing residues in the X-ray structures- e.g in the
        loop regions).

        So what the best way to build system would  be in my case?

        1-  Should I use X-ray structure where internal water has
        already present and build missing loops via model software ?
        How I could preserve the internal waters in that starting
        structure when this structure will be processed by pdb2gmx ?

        2- Or the best way is to incorporate all waters in the model
        of my protein ? If this aproach could be better what is the
        simplest way to transfer exact coordinates of water in that
        holo model ? )

        Thanks for help


        James
