Dear justin ,

                      I am doing MD for  Cyclic poly Peptide With ARG as
N-termina and PRO as C-terminal .  I have run pdb2gmx it is oak.  . I have
solvated and added ions successfully
But when i Run the Energy Minimization The Bond between  N atom of  ARG and C
atom of PRO is broken .
What  Should i Do To keep this Bond Through entire EM and MD ?    Can i Use
Constraints option in topology file
  if i need to use  Constraints option What is the  Syntax  ?  Also The Bond is
not constructed between N atom and C atom of terminal ARG and PRO residues in
Topology

Then you already have your answer. Bonds do not break or form during MD. pdb2gmx does not produce cyclic polypeptide topologies unless you have made appropriate modifications. As you are observing, there is no such bond and you need to add it (and any other resulting bonded parameters like angles, dihedrals, and impropers) yourself.
