Dear Francois:
Thank you for you rapidly responce. If you have time I want to ask you a
question about the charge derivation. The chromophore was made from the
cyclization of THR-TYR-GLY
(http://pps.cryst.bbk.ac.uk/PPS2/projects/jonda/chromoph.htm). It have the
side chains of the THR and GLY. During the charge derivation procedure could
be good idea to do intra-molecular charge constraint in this sidechains or
only on the N-H and C-O terminal atoms?

Best Regard,
Anthony Cruz
