Hi

I am using a dimer for my simulation system which is connected by 2
disulfide bonds.
After energy minimization for even few cycles, the disulfide bond breaks
which is not expected.

Bonds do not break in classical molecular mechanics. One of two things is happening:

1. There was never a bond to begin with (check your topology)
2. The bond is highly strained, in which case something is wrong with your structure.

i have applied amber99 force field and prepared the system. while i tried
with another force field in Gromacs which did not worked at all.

What does that mean?  What failed?

also i have tried by editing specbond.dat as well but of no use.

In what way?  Have you seen the information at:

can any one share/discuss some ideas how to fix this.

reg's,
Parthiban.
