Hi, For pure water (no ions, no external electric field), reaction field does fine even with a short cut-off, e.g. 0.9 nm (use reaction-field-zero if you need good energy conservation). In case you have long-range fields, use no-cutoff at all (all cut-off to 0 in the mdp file) when you system

Hi Sonali, First of all, you'll have to find a force field that supports tyrosinate and serinate. These aren't generally considered titratable and are consequently not in the list for interactive selections with pdb2gmx. Once you've found a suitable force field, you'll have to set the protonation
