Re: [gmx-users] Error with MARTINI depending by the box size

I have not followed the thread but concerning the solvation of a protein using genbox you need to: 1- use a box of water that has the exact size of the final box you want (you make it yourself using any tool you want) and you need to define the box size of the protein file as the one of the

Hi, Visualization is the key. If you check the structure right after genbox, you should be able to notice something odd. Apparently genbox has a problem with martini water, which probably means there is a problem with monoatomic solvents. The problem has been noted before, b ut I'm a bit too lazy

Hi Mark, you are right respect the -vdwd 0.4: In MARTINI tutorials they suggest to use 0.21. Since I still got errors with this procedure, I decided to remove water manually through vmd. Looking carefully at the configurations, I found that the water molecule originating the error is exactly super

Actually, since I copied and pasted the mail, there is an imprecision. When I use 20nm as box side lenght I don't get any error, everything goes fine. I actually tested different size between 19 and 20 nm and I found that the minimum size to avoid the error is 19.5nm. My system has an average size
