Re: AMBER: leap - how to recognize my structure

the names in the PDB file and your residue library need to match.
two of the atoms don't- it found 2 atoms that it doesn't know about
and added two atoms that were not in the pdb. these are probably the
same 2.

be very careful with the renaming to make sure that the atoms match up
properly. leap won't warn you if all atoms are present but not in the
right places. in other words, the atom coordinates must be right for
the specific atom types. the names are just a way to match them up
between library (with types and parameters) and pdb file (with coordinates).
