Thank you so much Joao Sir for your kind response.

1. I have predicted the pka values for my protein using H++ server.

2. Based on the pka values, I have set the protonation states of the
charged residues using -inter command for pH 9.

3.I have run my simulation at pH 9 (keeping charge of +8e) using gromacs
5.1.4 and gromos54a7 ff.

After performing 100ns simulation, I didn't observed any change compared
to control system.

Can you provide any advice on it?

Thank You

Regards
Zaved
