if you look at the water box, do you see a depression (i.e. absence of
water) roughly in the shape of the part of your protein that is "out of the
box"? If so, this is just an imaging issue with periodic conditions, and
doesn't mean anything (i.e. it's what should happen).
There are commands in ptraj for re-centering the periodic box around
whatever you want (your one oligomer for instance).
