[gmx-users] Impact of ignoring hydrogens

[su]

Allright. I will try this option.
Thank You very much for quick reply.

This should be fine for most hydrogens except for the exchangable protons of acidic and basic residues, where the algorithm quite possibly will not protonate all residues the same as in the NMR structure. Strictly, it is not necessary to remove the experimental data to make the simulation run, but it does make it more tedious.

The solution is rather straighforward -> rename the hydrogens in your pdb to they match those from $GMXDATA/top/ffname/aminoacids.rtp. How you go about renaming efficiently is an entirely different thing.
