Justin,
The system was compact after inserting protein into bilayer (I've obtain
Area per lipid in accordanc with experimental reference) and futher
minimization (only some llipid tails on the border of the system were
distorded alittle)
But after nvt simulation this discrepancy occured :)
I've used pbc size like in the KALP simulation because I have bilayer (
128 lipids) and the protein (38 a.a) of the same size.
KALP-15 has only 15 residues; your peptide is significantly longer.
My box vectors were 6.500 6.500 6.500
Do you think that I should use smaller pbc? How I could define pbc on
the right size for my purely bilayer system?
You shouldn't use the box vectors I did in the tutorial - use the dimensions
present in the actual membrane you're using. I still see no conceivable way
that the bilayer separated that much during NVT without significant empty space
in the unit cell to start. In NVT, the volume is constant, so if there are
voids, the lipids will fill to expand them. I've seen it countless times, so
please be sure you're actually providing sufficient solvent and an appropriate
location for all your components within the unit cell.

I've used
trjconv -s em.tpr -f dmpc128.gro -o dmpc128_whole.gro -pbc mol -ur compact
at the preequilibrated bilayer and than done anything in accordance to the KALP
tutorial

How large of a void exists between your lipids and water prior to
starting the simulation? I'm almost certain that you built the unit
cell incorrectly - there should never be that much free space.
By the way I'ts intresting that Gmembed has removed 6 lipids in
comparison to the inflateglo ( althought I've done all things in
accordance to the KALP tutorial because my protein is the same).
Different algorithms, different results. Nothing odd about that to me.
