Thanks for your quick and also fast (;)) reply, Carsten.

Hello,

in short : it is possible ? I use the gromacs v4.6.5.

Thanks

These cutoffs are incorrect for using CHARMM force fields.  See previous posts
on proper settings.

Coupling water and ions separately is not sensible.

When sharing files, please only post what is actually necessary to reproduce the
problem - a self-contained force field directory, coordinates, topology, .mdp,
and index file if needed.  A dump of dozens of files with no context gets
burdensome to go through.

Your minimized geometry is clearly junk.  Just visualize the structure and you
will see that your mCherry residue is completely distorted.  The very large
(10^4) force after EM should have been the first clue that something is very wrong.

The problems almost certainly stem from the manipulations you've made to the
angles and dihedrals.  I don't understand why you've commented some of them out.
  For instance, the first angle that you've removed is atoms 977-978-992, which
clearly should have an angle interaction because 977-978 and 978-992 are bonded.
  Simply removing "inconvenient" interactions (i.e. lacking parameters or
whatever) leads to a total meltdown of the model.
