Hi Justin


Thanks, that makes sense. I have the group "Close to ISO" that contains the 
water molecules in my specified region and I have the group ISO and therefore the next 
step is to unite this two groups.


If I typed


make_ndx -f molecule.pdb -n index.ndx -o index_new.ndx

the make_ndx program shows only one group, the "Close to ISO" with number 0 and 
no other groups, so how to merge them?

I typed l for "list residues" and than there was ISO and SOL.

Now if I am at this place, how to tell GROMACS, that ISO is a group also, that I can 
merge it with "Close to ISO"?


My recollection of this feature was wrong; sorry. I assumed the default groups would be appended to your custom index group, which is not the case.

Create a new index group with:

make_ndx -f molecule.pdb -o index2.ndx

This will contain groups like ISO and SOL. Then just concatenate the existing index groups:

cat index2.ndx index.ndx > index3.ndx

Then attempt to do what I said before, operating with index3.ndx, i.e.:

make_ndx -f molecule.pdb -n index3.ndx -o index_final.ndx

where index_final.ndx will have the merged groups.
