I don't think we handle implicit solvent and periodic boundary conditions
at the same time. For a system that large, implicit solvent (the way we
implement it) would be much slower than explicit solvent, anyway, and the
consensus is that implicit solvent is not as accurate. A large speedup and
sampling capability are needed to justify implicit solvent calculations,
although there are cases where that is true. CHARMM has implemented
implicit solvent membranes, but in those cases the membrane itself is a
different dielectric regime, another form of implicit solvation amidst the
implicit
water.
