Thank you, Justin.. I added the all the needed connectivity for GFP chromophore in the aminoacid.rtp(mentioned -C and +N to indicate the preceding and following residue) and also defined the residue as "Protein" in residuetypes.dat. For the non existing bond types, bond angles, proper and improper dihedrals, i added newly in the file ffbonded.itp. Also hydrogen atom connectivity are defined in the .hdb file.
The structure looks perfect after pdb2gmx but when i do minimization, the atoms(N+ and C-) chromphore along with neighbouring residue terminals are flying apart. So i don't know where i am making mistakes. Should i need to give information in the Termini database flie *.tdb ? or Is this due to wrong force constant values? or Is my force field parameter has mistakes? Thank your for you help.
