I wish to do md simulations for a protein bound to calcium and water. I am able to generate the .itp file for calcium but how can I generate a .itp file for bound water in my protein?
It depends the force field you are using. you can use ATB, swiss param, prodrug for the aim of making itb files.
thankyou for the reply. I am using Gromos 53a6.
how can i generate the .itp file for only bound waters (which lack connect records) in protein
I propose prodrug. I think it is compatible with Gromos 53a6. You can try and see.
I know how to change the ionic concentration by -conc command but, what is the default ion concentration that gets set while adding ions for neutralization in gromacs?

Hello all, As far as I know, minimization is done before simulations but are there cases when the simulated structure still needs further refinement?
