Hi,

I have not studied ff99 or ions08, but for ff94 in addition to
missing addAtomTypes there were also missing addPdbResMap and
addPdbAtomMap. We should get this right in future releases
by either including all these commands or by describing in comments
and in the manual why we didn't and what the user needs to do.

Here's DOCK's leaprc.dock.ions:
(http://dock.compbio.ucsf.edu/DOCK_6/index.htm)

# DOCK Amber Score Ion Library
# Scott Brozell March 2007

# Use Amber's ions94 library.
# It creates residues and units for alkali metal ions using ff94
# atom types and parameters defined in parm94.
# The Li+..Cs+ series uses information derived from the work of Aqvist.
# This information is identical to DOCK's vdw_AMBER_parm99.defn.
# ions94 also creates divalent, monoatomic ions for Mg, Ca, and Zn,
# but complete atom types and parameters are not in parm94;
# sensibly, the names chosen, MG, CA, and ZN, correspond to the
# common names of these ions in pdb's.

# Make the common names of these ions in pdb's recognizable to LEaP.
# IMO Amber is broken here - these commands should be in leaprc.ff94
addPdbResMap {
  { "LI" "Li+" } { 0 "LI" "Li+" } { 1 "LI" "Li+" }
  { "NA" "CIO" } { 0 "NA" "CIO" } { 1 "NA" "CIO" }
  { "K" "K+" } { 0 "K" "K+" } { 1 "K" "K+" }
  { "RB" "Rb+" } { 0 "RB" "Rb+" } { 1 "RB" "Rb+" }
  { "CS" "Cs+" } { 0 "CS" "Cs+" } { 1 "CS" "Cs+" }
}
addPdbAtomMap {
  { "LI" "Li+" }
  { "NA" "Na+" }
  { "K" "K+" }
  { "RB" "Rb+" }
  { "CS" "Cs+" }
}

# This merely prevents unknown atom type and maybe hybridization
# comments from LEaP. The application of this command is not thorough.
addAtomTypes {
   { "Mg" "Mg" "sp3" }
   { "Ca" "Ca" "sp3" }
   { "Sr" "Sr" "sp3" }
   { "Ba" "Ba" "sp3" }
   { "Sr" "Sr" "sp3" }
   { "V" "V" "sp3" }
   { "Zn" "Zn" "sp3" }
}

# Define the atom types and parameters for the alkaline earth ions
# and others; residues and units for some of these have not been created.
dock_ions = loadamberparams frcmod.dock.ions


# Use Amber's GAFF via mol2 and frcmod files for non-atomic ions.
# ACT acetate -1
ACT=loadmol2 act.mol2
frcmod=loadamberparams act.frcmod
# SO4 sulfate -2
SO4=loadmol2 so4.mol2
frcmod=loadamberparams so4.frcmod


# Treat magnesium with six waters as a single cation via water stripping.
addPdbResMap {
  { "MO6" "MG" } { 0 "MO6" "MG" } { 1 "MO6" "MG" }
}
