Dear Cesar,
Thank you for your reply,

There are two different kind of water gro in this site (one of them is
water.gro in :
http://md.chem.rug.nl/~marrink/MARTINI/Coordinates.html
and another is water-1bar-303k.gro in :
 http://md.chem.rug.nl/~marrink/MARTINI/Tutorial.html . Is there difference
between them?
Can I build water.gro with coarse graining beads (P4) from spc216.gro with
using atom2cg.awk script?

Another question; How can I change secondary structure information during
CGMD simulation, If I want to perform CGMD simulation for finding of the
folding/unfolding mechanism in proteins completely? Because Martini CGFF
consider fix it.

Cheers
Rasoul
