In membrane protein simulation do we need to treat the Protein with lipid

No idea what this means.

giving "none" option  in response to -ter command. where we have capped N
and C termini before pdb2gmx command? Please clarify.


Normal termini in Gromacs are built based on the assumption that a polypeptide chain has free amine and carboxyl groups at the respective termini, so pdb2gmx acts accordingly to build whatever H and O atoms are needed. In the case of capping groups, no such manipulation should be applied, hence you choose "None" to signify that no changes should be made to the atoms present.
