There is no residue named Ni in the pdb used.  This was one reason I 
was confused.
This is the procedure I used to assemble my model:
1.  I made a CR unit by creating the "crown" portion in antechamber, 
loading it into xLeap and saving it as a unit.  I created a unit called 
Ni and saved it.  I loaded a pdb with the CR and the Ni, merging them, 
added the Ni bonds and saved it as NCH.
2.  I then loaded a pdb for a piece of DNA with two of the atoms from 
NCH (the CR portion) in it (labeled as the correct atom names and 
residue name NCH).
I'm wondering if, when I made the NCH from the two portions and then 
saved it, did it not re-name the entire unit?  Or is it still named as 
if it's made up of the smaller units?  Which name/names would I use in 
my pdb?
I do understand about renaming the pdb file to exactly match the unit 
in leap and have gotten it to work with a different unit and this pdb 
for the DNA without a hitch.  That unit was a single unit created in 
antechamber (no merge afterward).
I guess my main question is, how do you rename a new unit (made up of 
other units) and use that new name in a later step?
Thank you for your help,
Kara Di Giorgio
p.s.  I'll try to make my questions more clear in the future.
