[gmx-users] Query: regarding how to include crystal water of pdb file as TIP4P water molecule

[Shay Teaching]

Dear Bipin,

Why not just erase the water molecules from the crystal?
You can do this before the pdb2gmx step and then, when you solvate the box
with genbox you'll have only one type of water both in the gro and topology
file. That's at least one way to deal with it.

Regards,
