Re: [AMBER] problem from xleap

I don't know enough about docking to say whether it will work. For MD,
I don't know a better solution than using a full protein instead of a
piece of it. Sorry! Maybe there are examples in the literature?

Leap renumbers the residues as it reads them such that the first
residue is 1, the second is 2, and so on. If the residues in the PDB
are not numbered sequentially starting from 1 they will be different
from leap's numbers. So perhaps as a result you've put the TER records
in the wrong places?

There is also a leap command to remove these bonds after you've loaded
the PDB (see the manual).

By the way, I follow your suggestion to insert TER between those residues, there are still the same warnings when loaded in xleap. What's the matter? Thanks!
