Dear Amber users:
When I load a DNA:protein complex into LEaP starting with an NMR structure
that has 5' and 3' hydroxyl termini, the program adds an incomplete
phosphate (PO2) to the 5' ends and leaves a dangling oxygen
(unprotonated) at the 3' ends. Here is an excerpt of the output:
Added missing heavy atom: .R<DA 30084>.A<P 1>
Added missing heavy atom: .R<DA 30084>.A<O1P 2>
Added missing heavy atom: .R<DA 30084>.A<O2P 3>
I did not request these atoms to be added, so I wonder if there is any way
to avoid this addition and leave the OH termini as they are in the NMR
structure.
Thanks very much for any suggestions.
Sincerely,
