Thanks for the reply Tsjerk. In fact I am just wonding if the situation exist, i.e., for the 10th trans-membrane helices in the protein, the 8th and or 9th for example is/are a little shorter than the other several helices. Will you please give a comment on how to process this kind of membrane

Hi. I'm new to simulation and haven't tried that. Below is what I heard. Most of the time, the force field just treat K+ and Na+ as a sphere with charge and with no orbitals. So, K+ and Na+ ions in simulations are only different in radius (of the sphere). I guess it is ok to use K+ instead of

Hi. I guess g_polystat can't do that. The online reference for gmx polystat (( http://manual.gromacs.org/programs/gmx-polystat.html) says: "...the persistence length is defined as number of bonds where the average cos reaches a value of 1/e." The number of bonds is one number. I don't think it

Hi Brett, So apart from the curvature of the membrane, there maybe the situation that there's just more of the protein in one leaflet than in the other. You'll need to account for that when embedding. Membrane builders typically check for overlaps to take care of this. Cheers, Tsjerk On Sep 13,

Hi Brett, If you mean an online server, then probably the CHARMM-GUI was made for you. If you mean downloadable, then you can try inflategro or insane (coarse-grained). In addition, Gromacs comes with g_membed integrated. Cheers, Tsjerk On Sep 13, 2015 12:00, "Brett"

Depends on what you are simulating. Na+ concentration inside cell is very low, comparing to K+. Thus, if you are simulating cell biomolecules, you should go for K+, and for other cases, Na+. Still, there are some issues with KCl crystal formation on some forcefields when simulating
