[gmx-users] How to generate a new xtc file with a membrane protein complex properly oriented along a given axis?

Thank you very much Dallas, it worked.

Haven't tried it, but seems to me you generate a .tpr file with the
protein orientated correctly within the box, then use trjconv -fit

Indeed for this calculation I need to have the protein-surfactant complex properly oriented along a given axis (say Z). For this I chose two atoms and define a vector in my protein and I would like that this vector // to z axis. How to this in GROMACS? I think that editconf can do the trick, however I notice that this tool cannot use and output an xtc file. So is there an alternative approach ? If yes how (an example of command line will be very useful)
