[gmx-users] How can I reconstruct the system in CGMD simulation?

For a detailed description of how to set up protein simulation, I recomend
you to read the Martini Tutorial on
http://md.chem.rug.nl/~marrink/MARTINI/Tutorial.html
there you will find  step by step instructions along with some explanations
of what you are actually doing.
In this case you only want to build a water box around your protein. For
that you will use editconf and a vdw distance of 0.19.
