Thanks Justin for the information.
But I had a further question regarding the simulation-if the active monomer 
exists only in the acidic pH, then will carrying out a simulation of the 
monomer with a drug  at neutral pH help?

That depends on what your scientific goals/questions are and what you are actually trying to model.

Dear Gromacs users,
I am working on a tetramer(human beta-2 tryptase) protein which exist as an 
active monomer at an acidic pH of about 6..If I have to do a molecular dynamic 
simulation of the monomer with a small molecule,  should the simulation be 
carried out  at this pH ? what are the steps I should follow?

Calculate the pKa values for titratable residues and select their dominant
protonation states at that pH when running pdb2gmx.
