Dear All,
For pdb2gmx, we have -ignh. Does -ignh will always give the correct HIS format at pH 7?

Strictly speaking, the -ignh option doesn't have anything to do with HIS protonation, it simply ignores H atoms in the input. HIS protonation states are then determined by an algorithm that seeks to maximize the hydrogen bonding network in the structure. Whether or not that necessarily reproduces reality (or completely replicates any protonation states in the original input that had its H atoms ignored) is an exercise for the user and can be changed with -his.

Looking forward to getting your reply.
Cheers, Acoot

In pdb2gmx -his

you will get something like below

0. H on ND1 only (HSD)
1. H on NE2 only (HSE)
2. H on ND1 and NE2 (HSP)
3. Coupled to Heme (HIS1)

Then based on the pka value and the PH, you can make a choice.
