Dear Amber users
I am a new user of Amber. Please could you help with the following
problems?
Thanks very much in advance
1)The first problem I encountered is that my newly created pdb from
frcmod file, when visualzed in VMD is completely disconnected no
bonds between atoms! Is this normal?
2) The second being: how to connect the CB(CT) carbons to CA (ie the
rest of the 4 CYS of this cubane)??
I am trying to generate parameters for the Fe4S4 cubane cluster that
is found in an enzyme.
I have created a frcmod file: fe4s4c.frcmod

I have cut out from the enzyme pdb file the cubane cluster with only
the SG carbons (hence without the entire CYS) (FES.pdb), after
modifications (i.e FES residue name) it looks like

Now, I have edited the file in xleap and created atom types and
inserted charges, I gain a lib file FES.lib

Now I have created topology and coordinates files successfully, and
xleap write down a number of lines saying
building topology
building atom param
building angle param
building proper torsion params
1-4: angle 1 4 duplicates ('triangular' bond) or angle ('square' bond)
1-4: angle 1 2 duplicates ('triangular' bond) or angle ('square' bond)
1-4: angle 2 3 ...
1-4: angle 2 4...
1-4: angle 3 4...
1-4: angle 5 8 ...
1-4: angle 5 11...
1-4: angle 5 14...
1-4: angle 8 14...
1-4: angle 8 11..
1-4: angle 11 14 ...
building improper torsion param
total 0 improper torsion applied
building H-Bond param
not making pre-residue atom chain types
making per-residue atom chain types
(Residues lacking connect0/connect1-
these don't have chain types marked:
res total affected
FES 5
)
(no restraints)
This is the pdb file from the new parametrisation:
