Hello everyone,
I am trying to use psfgen to create a .psf file for AcetylProlineAmide,
which is basically { ACP-PRO-NH2 }. I have the structure (in .pdb ) for
this.
Now, I am using the 'PRES ACP' from the Charmm topology file without a
problem. For the 'NH2" patch, I create a ' PRES ACT ' in the topology file
(a modification to PRES CT2):
PRES ACT 0.00
ATOM NT NH2 -0.62
ATOM HT1 H 0.32
ATOM HT2 H 0.30
BOND NT HT1 NT HT2
DONOR HT1 NT
DONOR HT2 NT
At the bottom of my "RESI PRO", I have:
PATCHING FIRST ACP LAST ACT
The PROBLEM:
psfgen skips the 'C-NT' bond, and I get I obtain the (HT1-NT-HT2) disjointed
form the rest of the molecule. I have tried re-naming the 'NT' to 'N', and
also tried it the other way, by having the bond {C +NT} in the PRO
topology.
Could someone please tell me what the solution is?
Thanks a lot,
Neela
