Prof. Lemkul thank you for your response. I'm using the output file from the charmm gui site after the MD production, which contain an equilibrated DOPC bilayer with TIP3 molecules as the solvent (and I remove the ions before the solvation). I used the second option of the gmx_solvate (solvate a solute configuration) Do you suggest to remove the water molecule, than concatenate the protein coordinates with the lipids coordinates and than solvate it with water? Thank you.
