[gmx-users] selecting res CYS from G53a5 using pdb2gmx

[Payman Pirzadeh]

Hi,
Found my solution; made an index file which had the protein and CYA in the
same group.
Thanks for all your helps Justin.

Yes, as does the fact that you're coupling ions separately from the solvent.
If you correctly added CYA to residuetypes.dat, this shouldn't happen.  Do
not couple it separately from the protein; that makes no sense.
