Hi Abhi,
Did you load a psf? Or some other file that tells VMD what atoms should have what charges? If you just load a pdb, that does not contain charge information, and then you'll also get 0, since it defaults to 0.

Dear Josh,
I did not ionize the system. I did use the above-mentioned code to calculate the total charge of different types of protein system and it's showing total charge zero for all systems. I don't understand, where is the problem?
Thanks for your reply,
Abhi

Hi Abhishek,
Did you ionize your system? By default, most ionization tools will add an extra 7 positive ions. An easy way to check the charge of just your protein would be something like:
puts [vecsum [[atomselect top "protein"] get charge]]
That ought to give you -7 as you expect.

Deal all,
I'm setting up a simulation, during set-up my protein is showing 23 negatively charged and 16 positively charged residues. The problem is that while running the simulation system is showing
TOTAL CHARGE = 5.02914e-06 e .
According to calculation there should be total charge =-7, which is not the case here.
Can someone help me out in this problem.
***** Message from SEQRDR ***** THE SYSTEM CONTAINS 45 TITRATABLE GROUPS
THE USER MUST PREDETERMINE THE PROTONATION STATE THROUGH THE SEQUENCE AND RTF
HIS - 0 HSD - 0 HSE - 3 HSP - 0 ASP - 8 GLU - 15 LYS - 16 TYR - 3

Thanks in advance,
Abhishek
