Hi
The mapping in AMBER is:
CB
|
CG
/ \
CD2 ND1
| |
NE1---CE1
You can also get this information by running xleap, and entering edit HID. The choose Display->Names and you will see all the atom names.
All the best

> Dear AMBER
> For Histidine, there are three forms of it, HIE, HID, and HIP.
> Delta poistion is position number 1 and Epsilon Position is position

> The problem is that:
> There two different systems of numbering the atoms in the
> imidazole ring of histidine had both been used for a considerable time
> (biochemists
> generally numbering as 1 the nitrogen atom adjacent to the side chain,
> and organic chemists
> designating it as 3).
>
> So, could you tell me which nitrogen atom is the delta one, please?
> Also, could you give me an example of HIP when histidine is protonated
> on both positions, please?
