Dear all,

This may sound stupid, but just to make sure that I am right track about implicit solvent simulations, the set up involves
pdb2gmx
editconf
grompp

I mean, we still need to define the box dimensions by editconf and apply periodicity, right?

Not usually. Proper settings usually include "pbc = no" and long cutoffs. This has been discussed at length in the list archive.

Besides, what type of ensemble would be a good choice (NPT, NVT, etc)?


Typically NVT. There is nothing compressible for NPT to act upon - you have, e.g., a protein in an imaginary bath of solvent. If you apply NPT conditions, the box will just collapse in on itself.
