<div> Dear Abraham,<br>
<br>
I am ignoring hydrogens for the protein residues since I am not sure if the Gromacs has an option to ignore hydrogen only for pretein residues but not for the heme complexed with it.<br>
<br>
One of my colleagues suggested to treat the Heme as an ligand not as a part of the protein to solve this issue. How would that really affect the accuracy of the simulation?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Sundar<br>

    That's good to say (particularly the first time you post a request
    for help, else you'll just get told to go and read), but is unlikely
    to get much help because you haven't identified a specific problem.
    You'd like the ability to build hydrogen atoms on a heme residue.
    pdb2gmx has to have a specific recipe for doing that. The manual
    describes the required format and gives an example. Someone's going
    to have to do some work.<br>

    If you don't ignore hydrogens, and they're already correct, you
    don't need to re-generate them...<br>
