Hello
I apologize if this is a trivial question, but my searches in the
reflector archive have provided no insights. I am using AMBER 9 and I
have installed the updated DNA_CI.lib, ions08.lib, frcmod.parmbsc0, and
frcmod.ionsjc_tip3p files into the lib and parm subdirectories. My
command sequence in xleap to load these new libraries and parameters is:
>loadoff DNA_CI.lib
>loadoff ions08.lib
>mods = loadamberparams frcmod.parmbsc0
>mods2 = loadamberparams frcmod.ionsjc_tip3p
However, when I checked leap.log, I noticed that all monovalent cations
and anions are listed as UNKNOWN ATOM TYPE. This flag is a bit
disconcerting to me. Will AMBER actually use the LJ parameters from
frcmod.ionsjc_tip3p when I use the command addIons in xleap to add Na+
and Cl- ions to a DNA dodecamer (after solvating with tip3p water and
creating the .inpcrd and .prmtop files, of course)?
The section of leap.log associated with these commands is below. Thanks
for your help.
