Hi Justin,

Thank you for your response.

The co-ordinate file that you have mentioned. Is it the one obtained
after running pdb2gmx step or the one after running genbox step?

Also, I am putting few outputs for your referral..

My co-ordinate file after building topology and incorporating my
ligand topology, looks like this:

----

My co-ordinate file after defining box looks like this:

----------------------------------

and my topology file has following:

[ molecules ]
; Compound        #mols
Protein_chain_A     1
Protein_chain_B     1
Protein_chain_C     1
Protein_chain_D     1
SOL               167
SOL               379
SOL               305
SOL               400
FDP		    4
ATP		    4
OXL		    4
SOL             91503


I think you are talking about the co-ordinate file obtained after
solvation, right?

I do notice that FDp is between HOH and SOL but if I remove FDP, my
ligand will be removed.

The second thing I noticed is that I had put the information for all
the three ligands i.e. FDP,ATP and OXL but subsequently, I find that
only FDP is present in these files and not ATP and OXL.

Please, could help me with both my problems.
