Dear Justin,
When I observed the toplogy file the first THR moeity was missing in 1
hydrogen atom compared to other Thr in the file so i added one line
below the 1st atom nitrogen for hydrogen as under and corrected the
qtot to 0,
1 N 1 THR N 1 -0.31 14.0067 ; qtot -0.31
2 H 1 THR H 1 0.31 1.008 ; qtot 0,
keeping the rest as the same, and executed the command pdb2gmx and
selected the same force field and 1 and 1 for n-terminus and
c-terminus, and now there were no errors as under:
Now there are 294 residues with 3047 atoms

Writing topology
but, when i saw the topology file , the same number of atoms are
present and no change in the qtot...
Why is it that qtot of 13 and the increased number of atoms are not
shown in the toplogy file and whether have i selected the wrong
options or is it the wrong way of correcting the toplogy file...
You can't correct a topology and expect it to have any influence on pdb2gmx.
The *output* of pdb2gmx is a topology, so any ad hoc changes after the fact will
mean nothing to another execution of pdb2gmx. It is generally a very BAD idea
to make such changes - consider that if you add an atom, every single atom
number after will be wrong with respect to bonds, angles, dihedrals, etc.
Your broken topology was a result of the fact that you specified capping groups,
therefore the termini were non-titratable and were not assigned any sort of
reasonable protonation state.

Thanks,

Dear Gromacs Users,
Thanks Justin and Marc for the response and you were right.
As suggested, i had a view in the modelled protein pdb file and here
both the terimus are capped that is as follows;
ATOM 1 N THR A 62 -43.095 3.360 19.026 1.00 30.00
N1+
ATOM 4804 OXT PRO A 355 -53.907 34.064 13.899 1.00110.00
O1-
then i tried to execute the pdb2gmx command as under, (which i did
earlier also): pdb2gmx -f damgomu.pdb -o damgomu_processed.gro -ignh
-ter -water spc
and selected the "Gromos96 53a6" parameter and "none" options, then
the warnings and errors where as follows:
Why would you choose "None?" It would seem that you do not, in fact, have
capping groups. If atom 1 is the N of THR, then there is no ACE cap before
it...
Now there are 294 residues with 3043 atoms
Making bonds...
Warning: Long Bond (12-14 = 0.65447 nm)
Warning: Long Bond (1975-1977 = 4.21722 nm)
Warning: Long Bond (2050-2052 = 3.24295 nm)
These messages generally indicate missing atoms. Investigate what they are
and why these errors are coming up.
Opening library file /usr/local/gromacs/share/gromacs/top/aminoacids.dat
WARNING: atom H is missing in residue THR 1 in the pdb file
You might need to add atom H to the hydrogen database of residue
THR
in the file ff???.hdb (see the manual)
This warning comes from the fact that you are telling pdb2gmx to look for
capping groups in order to find improper dihedrals, and it appears no such
groups exist.
Fatal error:
There were 1 missing atoms in molecule Protein_A, if you want to use
this incomplete topology anyhow, use the option -missing
and in the previous run i concatenated -missing option and continued
further, then the toplogy was written with the charge of Total charge
12.690 e ,but still the warning persisted of missing H atom in THR1.
There is a reason the pdb2gmx help information calls the -missing option
"dangerous"...
Please suggest me how to rectify this error and why the total number
of atoms in pdb file (4815) are not matching even though the number of
residues are matching after pdb2gmx step.
Find out which atoms are missing (if any) to fix the "long bonds" problem,
then don't specify "None" as your termini unless you really have acetyl and
amide caps.
-Justin
Thanks,
Ram
and selected choose the "Gromos96 53a6" parameter and "none" options

Dear Gromacs users,
I have a modelled protein whose net charge is +12.69, and I would like
to ionize the protein to make it neutral using genion command, but in genion
command we can add a specific number of postive or negative charged ions
which for my case would not completely neutralize the system and i learnt
from Justin tutorial that we can even neutralize it using -conc and -neutral
options in conjugation. As I am running a membrane-protein simulation, I
would like to know the command which I am using is correct or not.
genion -s ions.tpr -o protein_solv_ions.gro -p topol.top -pname NA+
-nname CL- -nn 12 -neutral
If my command is wrong Please suggest the right one as In future i have
to conjugate SOL and CL- ions to create a special index file.
If your protein has a net charge of +12.69, it is probably wrong. Does
anything in real life have such a net fractional charge?
Go back and evaluate what you have done. Are there missing atoms? Wrong
parameters? The genion command you want to use is fine, but is not suitable
for your system in its current state.
-Justin
Thanks
Ram
