Hi Mark, I think, it is not a chemistry question exactly. Genion command asks for a group whose atoms are replaced with ions. I have no solvent molecules in my system. In this respect, how can I incorporate ions into my system?

This is a chemistry question that will depend on your protein and what you're trying to study. In some cases you might also consider modifying the chemical groups so that there is not an ion there.
