Hi Elham, No, a box of 0.5*0.5*0.5 has 0.125 times the volume of one of 1*1*1, so gives an 8 times as high concentration. But it gets more complicated if you mean the concentration of the solution around a protein. I tend to favour using molality (as mol solute per mol solvent) for that. Yes,

Hi Alex, You've solved the issue of getting a DNA structure, but now you're facing a problem of getting Gromacs to prune it. That has to do with the naming scheme mainly. Your best bet is using sed to do name substitution. Probably google will give some good hints about such substitutions in PDB

Hi Rebeca, You'd need to use k-means/k-medians clustering for that, which is not in gmx cluster. I'd suggest to perform PCA and collect the projections onto the first ten or so eigenvectors to decrease the dimensionality. This data matrix you can then process with, e.g., R to perform k-means
