Hello,
I've been using Amber for about a year now to run MD simulations on
a series of small molecules in waterboxes. I was using an older version of
Amber 7 (older in the sense that it was compiled in 2001), and antechamber
was working fine. For example, a prepin file created for methane using amber
atom types assigned the hydrogens the HC type, and the carbon the CT type.
We recently recompiled Amber 7 (July of this year), and now the ante-
chamber program assigns erroneous atom types, especially in the case of
hydrogen atoms. For example, the exact same procedure for methane (same mol2
file, same antechamber options) creates a prepin file with hydrogens
assigned
HA atom types. Can anyone explain why this is happening? Thanks,
