You want to prepare a PREP file for the magnesium ion, and load it into
LEaP before saving the topology file. A sample PREP file can be:


0

Magnesium Ion
MG
MG XYZ 0
CHANGE OMIT DU ALL
0.00
1 DUMM DU M 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.000
2 DUMM DU M 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.000
3 DUMM DU M 1.0000 1.0000 0.0000 0.000
4 MG MG M 2.0000 2.0000 2.0000 2.000



DONE
STOP

Subject: AMBER: check unit + saveamberparm
Hi all,

I am having a nucleic acid (RNA) + ligand (theophylline) + three
Magensium atoms + waters + sodium atoms in xleap. When I check the unit,

everything is ok, no errors and such (not even a warning). However, when

  I want to save the amber parameters, leap tells me that it cannot find

the types for the three Magnesium atoms.
Am I missing something here?
I am using amber7.
Here is the output:

> check complex
Checking 'complex'....
Checking parameters for unit 'complex'.
Checking for bond parameters.
Checking for angle parameters.
Unit is OK.
> saveamberparm complex prmtop inpcrd
Checking Unit.
Building topology.
Building atom parameters.
For atom: .R<RG 1>.A<Mg38 38> Could not find type: Mg
For atom: .R<RG 1>.A<Mg47 47> Could not find type: Mg
For atom: .R<RG 1>.A<Mg52 52> Could not find type: Mg
Parameter file was not saved.

Thanks for any helpful comments.

Carsten
