Dear NAMD-L,
I know this topic has been dealt with previously here, but the previous solutions do not seem to apply to my system. I hope I am not overlooking something obvious.
I am using unnatural amino acids and one of these is 2-amino-3-ethylpentanoic acid, or EPA for short. It is like ILE only the two chains branching out from the beta carbon are both ethyls whereas in ILE they are one ethyl and one methyl.
To make a topology file I extended the methyl group to an ethyl groyp. I made sure to add the new bonds and rename kept atoms appropriately. In the topology file IC table I commented out anything that might contain erroneous information.
I constructed a .pdb by manually "methylating" ILE in a .pdb I have from NMR. I made sure the atom names in the .pdb agreed with those in the topology file. I successfully created .psf.
Now I want to minimize the system in vacuum since this manual editing has probably given rise to suboptimal bonds and angles.
Then comes the mentioned error:
FATAL ERROR: UNABLE TO FIND ANGLE PARAMETERS FOR CT2 CT1 CT2 (ATOMS 107 98 100)
These atoms are beta carbon (#98) and the two gamma carbons (#s 107 and 103). This surprises me since I have not done anything to these atoms.
Please help!
