Dear Bill
How can I neutralize the charge on my ligand which is not integral (it
is: 0.999960)? As you mentioned that Leap adds ions with integral
charge and thus the solute must have integral charge to arrive at 0. I
guess that is the reason TLEAP is not able to neutralize the decimal
charge on my ligand.
You also commented that "If you don't want to neutralize it with an
ion, I doubt it's a problem." >> Does this mean that I can simulate my
GPCR-Ligand-Membrane system using an overall net charge of 0.970410,
IS THIS ALLOWED, I MEAN, WILL THIS CHARGE NOT CREATE ANY ARTIFACTS
DURING MD SIMULATION?
If I have to neutralize this charge by making it an integer value of
1, how can I do that for my ligand which otherwise has a charge of
0.999960 ??
Thanks for your help and I look forward to hear from you.
Best Regards

I forget if there's a 'fudge factor' when neutralizing with ions.
This is pretty close to integral charge. If you can get it to 1.0
that could neutralize worry :-) If you don't want to neutralize it
with an ion, I doubt it's a problem. Otherwise try and see if it
gets neutralized.
