Dear Sirs,
I have been foiled in my attempt to build a phosphoserine library for
AMBER despite the fact that I know that others seem to have done it.
Could you comment one my strategy to build this library? I am sure I
am close, but ... you know how working with code that you are just
learning goes.... anyway I would also like to know the relationships
between the many library files as well, as my misunderstanding might be
at the root cause of my errors.
Here is what I did.
1) Build the residue in Insight, used its optimization to relax the
molecule to get appropriate bond angles, and lengths
2) Run antechamber to get a sep.prepin library fragment to use in tleap
3) Goal: Run tleap to generate a general prmtop file for the AMBER
molecular simulation
4) Goal: Run sander

This seems to be ok, I had solved a number of geometry problems and
nomenclature problems last week and the data seems resonable. However,
I had to hand edit this file because the original antechamber output
kept calling PO(4-) atoms M for main backbone and not S for sidechain
(maybe a sign that I have done this wrong too)

Parameter file was not saved.
But the problem seems to be with the names O, P5, OH, etc and that is
what antechamber produced! I then looked through files like
all_amino94.lib all_amino02.lib
parm94.dat
all_amino94.in
I tried capitalization, renaming, etc and been lead astray by things
like the fact the _every_ standard residue had a nitrogen - hydrogen
label H and leap _wouldnot_ take that for my new residue ... it wanted
to be labeled HN. Why, I am not sure but presumably there is a list of
aliases from H -> HN for predefined residues.
-----------------------
Then I tried to modify the core library directly, that is
all_amino94.lib That is almost complete, but apparently the section :
!entry.SER.unit.positions table dbl x dbl y dbl z

6.008824 1.593175 -8.449829E-06
as a tempate for my new !entry SEP ...
needs to have the HN-N-CA-C in a plane and so am I making that
transformation. When I place a general set of coordinated in leap said
that the file was not a valid library.
----------------------
Am I following the process correctly? As a minor note I have been able
to build libraries for both Dyana and MolMol and they are working. Any
comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You Very Much
