You can use either ParmEd or cpptraj to create a corresponding topology
file. Look at either the "strip" command (in ParmEd) or the "parmstrip"
command in cpptraj.
In fact, you can do this in cpptraj in a single step when you use the
"strip" command to remove part of the system. The "outprefix" keyword
will create a matching topology file. For example:
cpptraj << EOF
parm full_system.parm7
trajin full_system.nc
strip :100-999999 outprefix trunc
trajout trunc.nc netcdf
EOF
The above command will remove all atoms in residue 100 and higher and
create a new NetCDF trajectory called trunc.nc as well as a topology
file called trunc.full_system.parm7.
