Re: AMBER: Problem running implicit minimization

Hi Dr. Case,

Thanks for your advice. Now that I think about it, I'm guessing the
minimization didn't really work because of the way I prepared my .crd and
.top files in xLeap. My molecule is really negatively charged (charge of
around -200), and xleap even warned me when I generated the crd and top
files. I'm doing an implicit minimization here so I didn't add any ions or
water molecules. But do you think I should add ions for the sake of
neutralizing the system? I'm trying to pinpoint whether the highly negative
charge of my molecule is disturbing the energetics of my system when I try
to run the implicit minimization.

Thanks,
Lili
