Hi Zhenting,

if solvation changed your coordinates, this should only affect
transitions and rotations of your system, but no internal coordinates.
Thus, when you simply use the solvated structure as reference for
cpptraj analyses of your trajectory results, it should be fine.

If you want to check for yourself, that your original pdb structure and
the solvated pdb structure are essentially the same, you could also use
superimposition and RMSD calculation features in common molecular
viewers like VMD or chimera.

Regards,

Anselm
