Thanks for the replies. I guess it is a very small bug. However, here is
another:
I have a 2-protein complex in water. The first protein residues numbers
are from residues 4 to 14, and the other from 5 to 9. In the INPUT .gro
file to grompp, I have a continuous numbering of residues from 4 to 19
(4 to 14+5). However, after an energy minimization, gromacs writes out a
.gro file which preserves the original numbering (4 to 14 and 5 to 9)
instead of a numbering from 4 to 19. Why does it do that? I can see the
problem with such a numbering because I can never unambiguously select
"residue number 6" if I want to make an index file. How does one go
about fixing this?
I made the original input .gro file by using : editconf -f in.gro -o
out.gro -resnr 4
In the topology file, I read in protein_A.itp and protein_B.itp which
start from the original pdb residue number (4 and 5 respectively for the
two chains)
This is expected behavior and arises from pdb2gmx. The default is pdb2gmx
-norenum, preserving the original residue numbering. The feature was
implemented to make selections less ambiguous in the case of missing residues
(i.e. termini). You can get continuous numbering, if you wish, by recreating
the topology with pdb2gmx -renum.
