Dear all,
I'm going to simulate a small peptide extracted from a protein.
The N terminus is acetylated and the C terminus is amidated in the original .pdb file. I guess the main purpose is to shield the C,N terminus.
Part of my pdb file is as follows:
HETATM 1 C ACE A 0 -1.837 8.502 -1.974 1.00 1.00 C
HETATM 2 O ACE A 0 -1.385 8.188 -3.074 1.00 1.00 O

There is PRES ACE for N terminus in the topological file top_all22_prot.inp, but i don't know the corresponding command needed in the input file of the GENPSF program.
On the other hand, there is no PRES NH2 for C terminus, how to deal with it?
Though, it's generally defaulted that the N-ter is NH3+ and C-ter is COO- rather than neuralized in the psfgen program, i still don't understand the real reason mainly due to my poor biochemistry background. Will anybody analyze the reason for me by the way?
Thanks for all your time!
All the best,
Yandong Huang,
