Thank you, Josh.
The aim is to have a PDB with standard atom naming since namd-inroduced atoms are not recognised by homology modelling and visualisation tools I use. This error I quoted comes from Swiss MODEL web interface.
 How do I deal with ILE,GLU and GLN ("ILE.HG11, ILE.HD1, ILE.HD2, ILE.HD3, ILE.HN, GLU.HN, GLU.OT1, GLU.OT2, GLN.HG1, GLN.HB1, GLN.HN, GLN.OT1, GLN.OT2”)?

Best regards,
Oleksiy
