Note the renumbering of the residues - you'll likely have to script this -
awk is good for this sort of thing.
Then when you load this into leap it should add missing atoms only for the
ACE and NME. Then select those two residues in leap and relax the selection
- I.e. relax the ACE and NME residues since they will have very bad initial
geometries. Then you should be able to create your prmtop and inpcrd files -
and hopefully be able to stably minimize - if you run into problems at the
minimization stage you may need to restrain everything except the ACE and
NME for the first stage of minimization.
I haven't been following this thread so this question may have already been
asked but why do you want to cap you entire protein with ACE and NME? Can
you not just leave it as the ion?
Normally you only cap with ACE and NME when you are trying to derive charges
for a new residue - say an modified amino acid. e.g. say you had modified
glutamine (call GLX), and you needed to calculate RESP charges. You would
build ACE-GLX-NME. Do a gas phase HF/6-31G* calculation (for FF99xx) to get
the ESP. Then you put this into RESP and do the resp fit keeping the ACE and
NME charges fixed at their published values. I can't see why you would want
to cap and entire protein chain.
All the best
Ross

Hi, amber users:
Based on Melinda's suggestion, the pdb file was modified like this below.
But the *.top file was still not available.

You can also run leap with your normal 1-149 no capping groups, save the pdb
file and in the new pdb rename H2 of res 1 to C of ACE and OXT of 149 to N
of NME.
Once leap runs correctly and you can visualize your molecule in VMD or
similar, then start worrying about running sander.

Actually, how users cap the protein terminal?
For example, by which kind of program to put the initial coordinates for ACE
and NME groups?
