[gmx-users] problem about Pr.mdp

Thanks Mr.Mark for your reply,
I am not getting any error, but after Position restrain step, when I see the
structure of *pr_protein_popc_out.gro in VMD the POPC tails are tilting
towards backwards(like pulling). It looks there is gap inbetween two
membrane layers, middle part of the protein appears without covering POPC
moledules, but water and protein structure are fine.
Can you pls tell where is the problem ? Is there in any mistake in my *
pr.mdp file
I am gving description about what steps i have done:
1.The protein simulated in solution for 500ps .
2. Protein inserted into POPC by using "genbox".
3. Steepest gradient energy minimisation for "protein embedded in POPC
system"  , here strucure is fine
4. Postion restrain for same system
 - For Protein, POPC and Water force constant -10000 I have used.

I am mentioning my *pr.mdp file
