Hi Justin, the sequence was: 

gmx editconf .... 

gmx solvate .... 

gmx grompp -f em -c dna_solvated.gro -p topol_solvated -o dna_solv.tpr 

gmx genion -s dna_solv.tpr -o dna_solv_NaCl.gro -conc 0.15 -neutral -pname NA 
-nname CL 

then: 

gmx grompp -f em.mdp -c dna_solv_NaCl.gro -p topol_solvated -o dna_solv_NaCl_EM 

gmx mdrun 


This worked. 

Then for the sim: 

dna_solv_NaCl_EM.gro does not contain any ions.

You run genion once to add ions to your system. Please provide the exact 
sequence of commands you're using. It's very hard to follow what you're 
describing. mdrun cannot delete anything, so "no longer contains the Na Cl 
ions" is impossible. Either the ions are there in the beginning or they're not. 
If you're using mdrun to run the .tpr file you're sending to genion, don't. 
There's no point. That .tpr file is not for a simulation, it's just for genion.
