Hi Tsjerk,

Thanks for the reply. As the description of gmx trjconv says, with -pbc
nojump, I do observed that the molecules (water and ions in case of
membrane simulation) diffused out of the box, as expected when one remove
the PBC. I just wonder whether this diffusion can affect any computing
properties of the membrane-protein system.

Many thanks
Anu
