Dear amber users,

I want to calculate the charge for a c-term homocysteine. Basically I
follow the procedure in the paper of Piotr Cieplak et al(JCC. 1995). I
have two conformations for homocysteine, alpha-helix form and beta-sheet
form. I can get the decent charges for central form homocysteine. Also the
charges look fine if I fit either alpha-helix form or beta-sheet form
homocysteine with the acetate. The problem is if I try to fit both
conformations with acetate, it gave weird charges(1.3 for C(o2), and
-1.00 for O(co2). I can not figure out what's going on
with my RESP calcualtion. Is there anyone can help me? I attached my input
file as below.

Sorry. The format for the group constraint part have been messed up
bacause the email process. I used the 16I5 format.


Thanks for any suggestions!
