Hi Mark, If I am using the older version of gromacs with group cutoff, what do you mean by "you always want a buffer"? Do we have to do some extra step after md simulation? Regards Sukriti

PS is the one type of lipid that doesn't work all that well in the CHARMM36 force field, even with the reparameterisation of the ion interactions that was done. I'd be tempted to go with a difference force field unless there is a real reason for needing CHARMM36. Slipids, for example, should

Dear Carsten, Thanks. The forward state simulations works properly with mdrun -ntmpi 8 -ntomp 2 or mdrun -ntmpi 4 -ntomp 4 as you suggested. For the backward state GROMACS still gives too many lincs warning error with those mdrun commands in the md step, indicating the system is far from
