there is a tutorial for how to build and equilibrate simple molecular
liquid boxes with VMD and TopoTools here:
https://sites.google.com/site/akohlmey/software/topotools/topotools-tutorial---part-2
this uses OPLS/AA, but that doesn't make much of a difference as those
systems will have to be re-quilibrated after solvation anyway.
the effect of a specific pH is usually not possible to model in the
solvent (and not worth trying), but through choices as to how residues
are protonated due to the pKa / pKb of the side chains.
