Dear all,
I am trying to solvate a protein in a dodecahedron box, and the box
doesn't seem right. I tried /trjconv -s ur compact -pbc mol, /that
ended up with a dodecahedron shaped water distrubution around the
protein however the box is still shown as triclinic inbn Pymol? Is this
Pymol's weakness or is this how dodecahedron works? Through the archive
That's how it works, really. Processing with trjconv reconstructs the desired
unit cell shape, but all the box information ever used by Gromacs (and other
software programs) is still the triclinic cell.
it sounds like genbox never ends up with an actual
dodecahedron/octahedron box, Gromacs takes the triclinic box version to
run simulation, is that right? If so how does the different box type
Correct.
take effect? I couldn't actually understand how does different box types
are created/processed in Gromacs?
Start with reference 18 of the manual, where this is discussed.
