Thanks for the advice.
I have indeed tried all of the combinations you suggest- none have worked so
far. However, when I use printAtoms command in rdparm I get the following:
RDPARM MENU: printAtoms
Mask [] represents 10 atoms
Perturbation is ON Perturbed atom

Number: Atom Charge Mass ( Residue ) Type Tree Atom Charge (
Residue ) Type
1: 7 0.93956 6.6 ( 1: 40) 10 73

6: .591 1.47830 19.0 ( 1: 40) .928 .242
7: 6 1.05755 6.5 ( 1: 40) 9 74
8: .879 0.44868 26.2 ( 1: 40) .542 .256
9: 26 1.56616 19.7 ( 1: 40) 11 4
10: .181 1.02654 6.7 ( 14:.109) .201 .28
It would seem as though I had only 10 atoms in the file. However, it should
have enough atoms for two 28 amino acid alpha helices- 56 residues. Maybe
this is why I cant specify a mask?
Thanks again
