Dear amber users
I have modeled residue called thio-glucoside.
In my prepin file, the atom type is in lowe-case
correspond with gaff.dat file.
I didnt change the atom type to Upper-case.
But my residue shows no problem.
Due to the lower-case, will be there any problem in
future, like in xx.top or xx.crd files?
Since I am new to Amber I would like to know this at
earlier stage to avoid any accidents later.
Thanks
Vijay
