Hello
 I want to create a .gro and .top file from my protein that contains 379 aminoacids in it's .pdb file by using gromos96 54a7 force field:
pdb2gmx -f protein.pdb -o protein.gro -water spce -ignh
but when gro and topology files are created , I see that message:
Start terminus GLY-12: GLY-NH3+
End terminus PRO-379: COO-

Now there are 368 residues with 3856 atoms

Writing topology

Back Off! I just backed up posre.itp to ./#posre.itp.46#

Back Off! I just backed up HDAC2.gro to ./#HDAC2.gro.1#
        --------- PLEASE NOTE ------------
You have successfully generated a topology from: HDAC2.pdb.
The Gromos54a7 force field and the spce water model are used.
        --------- ETON ESAELP ------------

However, i ignored this message and continued to use grompp
gmx grompp -f em.mdp -c solv.gro -p topol.top -o ions.tpr

but faced to this message:
  gmx grompp -f em.mdp -c solv.gro -p topol.top -o ions.tpr

Is there anyone to help me? Why pdb2gmx didnt consider all 379 amino acids of my protein and why GOMACS excluded 3 bonded neighours of the protein and SOL?and would you please tell what ' removing all charge groups because cutoff-scheme=Verlet ' means ? I t means the system is neutral ?

thanks in advanceFarial
