Hi, all,
Thanks very much for all your replies, which are quite helpful :)
However, Junmei, after I read the information you gave about using
antechamber I still don't quite understand how to use it. For example, I
have Ni ions bound to four CYS residues (e.g. CYS11, CYS35, CYS100, CYS218),
do I just need to cut these residues from the original PDB file and follow
the procedures? Do I need to have Gaussian software or it can be done only
using antechamber? And also the way it tells is quite different from what
the amber workshop tutorial 5 does it, can you please tell me more about it?
I tried to cut those residues out from the PDB and followed the tutorial 5,
it gave me error message 'can't open ANTECHAMBER_AM1BCC.AC', why is that?
Thanks a lot, I am such a newbie in this, and thank you very much in
advance.
Best regards,
Rachel
