Dear Justin and Dallas: Thank you for your help earlier.
I made a copy of ffoplsaa.rtp to my working directory and add a new residue to it. Then perform the following command: pdb2gmx -f pdms10.pdb -o pdms10.gro -p top.top -i pdms10.itp Opening library file /packages/gromacs-3.3.3/share/gromacs/top/FF.dat Select the Force Field: 0: GROMOS96 43a1 force field 1: GROMOS96 43b1 vacuum force field 2: GROMOS96 43a2 force field (improved alkane dihedrals) 3: GROMOS96 45a3 force field (Schuler JCC 2001 22 1205) 4: GROMOS96 53a5 force field (JCC 2004 vol 25 pag 1656) 5: GROMOS96 53a6 force field (JCC 2004 vol 25 pag 1656) 6: OPLS-AA/L all-atom force field (2001 aminoacid dihedrals) 7: Encad all-atom force field, using scaled-down vacuum charges 8: Encad all-atom force field, using full solvent charges 6 Opening library file ffoplsaa.rtp Opening library file /packages/gromacs-3.3.3/share/gromacs/top/aminoacids.dat Reading pdms10.pdb...
