i started with the lipid coordinates from peter tieleman and removed the water. then i added water by genbox.
I did energy minimization followed by position restrain, which I removed gradually. all of it was done under npt. I carried out npt for 250 ps. During the next 250 ps npt run the bilayers separated and deformed. > Date: Sat, 15 Dec 2007 09:53:06 -0500> From: jalemkul at vt.edu> To: gmx-users at gromacs.org> Subject: RE: [gmx-users] problem with npt> > Quoting pragya chohan <pragyachohan at hotmail.com>:> > >> >> > I wrote yes to generate velocity.
