Hi everyone; I am running a MD simulation of a 40 kDa protein bound to ADP  in 
GROMACS VERSION 4.5.5. I made three minimization  with restrains in protein, 
backbone and c-alpha, in that order, and two equilibration with 150 and 300K 
using backbone restrains. But when I run my md I get this error

(...)

Step 234604:
The charge group starting at atom 3430 moved than the distance allowed by the 
domain decomposition (3.219980) in direction X
distance out of cell -65.799425
Old coordinates:    4.304    3.918    3.886
New coordinates:  -62.579    4.743    6.132
Old cell boundaries in direction X:    3.220    6.439
New cell boundaries in direction X:    3.220
  6.440

Program mdrun, VERSION 4.5.5
Source code file: domdec.c, line: 4124

Fatal error:
A charge group moved too far between two domain decomposition steps
This usually means that your system is not well equilibrated

The atom corresponds to the ADP

the mdp file I am using is the following and I am running it with

mdrun -nt 4 -npme 1 -v -s topol.tpr -o traj.trr -x traj.xtc -c din.pdb -e 
ener.edr -g md.log

If any one can help me with this error I would appreciate it very much!. Thank

Your timestep (5 fs) is too large.  Reduce it to 2 fs and try again.
