Hi,
Thanks to all of you for the valuable informations.
Now I'm using xleap to generate a combine force-field for
protein-carbohydrate complex. I'm using leaprc.ff03 and leaprc.GLYCAM_06 for
protein and carbohydrate respectively. But how will it be possible to use
these two at a time? Because if I use
#xleap -s -f leaprc.ff03
#list
only the protein residues are given.
and if
#xleap -s -f leaprc.GLYCAM_06
#list
only the residues for carbohydrates are displayed.
How shall i combine these two to generate the prmtop and inpcrd file for the
protein-carbohydrate complex?
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Madhurima
