Hello Dr. Lemkul,
You were very helpful (I was pondering this problem for about four days before you told me this and it all makes sense now). To complete the solvation step, should I combine the topol.top files of both protein chains?

You should only ever have one topol.top. pdb2gmx will write each protein chain topology to .itp files that are #included within it.

Thanks,

    A system containing several proteins is functionally no different
    than
    simulating one protein. Don't equate protein-protein systems to
    protein-ligand systems, which often require external ligand
    parametrization. None of that is necessary when dealing with proteins.
