Just to elaborate on what Giacomo said, as you'll note in the structure
building portion of the NAMD tutorial you can define both terminal
patches for each chain, and patches on a residue by residue basis for
further modifications. You can find the available patches by looking at
the topology file. For example, NTER gives a protonated N terminus, ACE
gives an N-acetyl blocked N terminus, ASPP gives a protonated aspartic
acid residue, and so on.
