Hi Justin,
Output topology from pdb2gmx.  You could see some entries differ between
two molecules.

I'm looking forward to do restrained MD for this system by using Gromacs.

I don't see anything syntactically wrong here. The normal function of the OPLS-AA force field is to look up all bonded parameters from ffbonded.itp (hence why the lines above for the protein atoms appear to have no parameters assigned). In principle, you can specify them explicitly, so I don't know why grompp is complaining.

Note here that the dihedral entries are garbage. The parameters you have are periodic dihedrals, not R-B, but the topology is specifying the phase angle, force constant, and multiplicity as coefficients in the R-B expression. You have two options here that may work:

1. Manually fix the topology such that these dihedrals are actually represented as periodic (i.e. delete the function type 3 that tells grompp they should be R-B) 2. Make an entirely separate lipid.rtp file (containing only the DMPC entry) that uses periodic dihedrals. I don't know if this approach will work, to be quite honest. Given that there need to be both R-B and periodic dihedrals in these molecules, there is no real easy way out.
