Dear Rabindra

I am copying this to the amber mail reflector which is where such questions
should be directed so other can benefit from responses. Please see
http://www.ambermd.org for details on how to sign up.

To answer your question it looks like there may be a formatting problem with
your pdb file. E.g.

ATOM 31 P DA 1 2 -13.526 0.019 2.842 1.00 0.18
P

I believe that the extra 1 after the DA should not be there. I.e. it should
be:

ATOM 31 P DA 2 -13.526 0.019 2.842 1.00 0.18
P

Or also possibly:

ATOM 31 P A 2 -13.526 0.019 2.842 1.00 0.18
P

Note you will also need to rename the termini to be A5, A3 etc respectively.

See tutorial B1 of http://www.ambermd.org/tutorials/ for more details.

Good luck,
Ross
