hi,
According to the help frm gmx-users ,
I did editconf with -center option twice.concatenated the coordinate files
using cat.
Then i ran frm pdb2gmx till genbox..When I saw result pdb using pymol there
was only one protein inside the box.Why is it like that?When i opened the
gro file after pdb2gmx number of atoms were double than the original one.
wht would be the problem?please help
These are the commands which i performed:

pdb2gmx -f 1lyd.pdb -o lyzo
editconf -f lyzo -bt cubic -d 1 -center 1 -o lyzo_edit.pdb
editconf -f lyzo -bt cubic -d 1 -center 1 -o lyzo_edit1.pdb
cat lyzo_edit.pdb lyzo_edit1.pdb > lyzozym.pdb
pdb2gmx -f lyzozym.pdb -o lyzozy
editconf -f  lyzozy -bt cubic -d 1 -center 1 -o lyzozy_edit -c
genbox -cp lyzozy_edit -cs spc216 -o lyzozy_gen.pdb

Thanks in advance

smriti
