Dear amber members,
I have been working on computing RESP charges for an
aminoacid-copper complex using redII and GAMESS.
I prepared a PDB file for the complex in LEAP and
relaxed it using LEAP's relax option.
However, GAMESS has failed optimizing the complex
strucuture for more than 2 days. Obvioulsly the
structure does not converge to 1.E-8.
I know that RED-II and GAMESS have passed a test run
with NMethylacetamide provided in RED-II manual. I
have also triple checked connectivity and ATOM
information in the PDB file for the complex. There is
no problem with that either.
The problem is I think with atomic coordinates. I
guess I need to start out with a converged structure
(~1.E-8) of the complex.
Currently, I do not have such a commercially available
expensive facility to do that. I was wondering if
anyone of you can suggest me a free version of an MD
software to prepare converged structures that would
work with RED-II and GAMESS.
best regards,
jenk.
