[gmx-users] simulating dimer proteins

[delara aghaie]

Dear Mark
Thanks for your complete explanation. 

Now I have a question about adding ions to this system. I see the chain A has qtot=-1 and also the chain B has qtot=-1.

Now If I add two positive ions using the genion command, is it ok to make my system neutral?
I mean is it the same as the case where two negative ions were on a single protein?
------------------------------
Thanks again
Regards
D.M

By definition of pdb2gmx function, you now have a topology and a
    coordinate file that matches. That is the minimum requirement for
    grompp to succeed later. grompp doesn't care about some aspects of
    atom numbering - including your observation above.
