Dear All:<br>
<br>
I am trying to build a lipid bilayer made of DMPC (<span
style="visibility: visible;" id="search">Dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine)
surrounding a putative membrane channel. Everything goes well
until I come across with the use of pdb2gmx and further on to the
use of gromp, where I realized that I need to add some information
about DMPC, information that is supposed to be in the rtp format.<br>
<br>
I have no idea how to build such rtp file for DMPC. I have read
and practiced with all tutorials about the construction of lipid
bilayer with GROMACS. I have also read the relevant information
about rtp files in the GROMACS Manual. However, I still cannot
figure out how to do this.<br>
<br>
I will appreciate very much any help provided. I am stuck and
would like to learn how to create an rtp file from scratch, which
I am sure I need to do more than once during this project...<br>
<br>
Much obliged,<br>
Ramon Garduno<br>
