[AMBER] Re: RESP with -a and witout -a flag

Dear J. Wang,



 I think I am not able to present my query well, I will now try to make it more clear.



I have three residues being capped. The cap was constrained to have
zero charge and want to use three repeating residues to make big
molecule by removing the caps so that I ultimately get zero charge on
big molecule. The big molecule is to be interacted with some organic
molecule (whose charges are derived by RESP method)



The charges were different on atoms if derived with constrained (
forcing charge to be zero on cap ) or non-constrained method, as you
have replied also

What method should I use for the organic molecule which is to be
finally interacted with big molecule (having repeating residues'
charges being derived from non constrained method)



1) should I look for SQRT values no matter constraint or non-constraint
method is used. What should be upper limit for the value?



2) if constraint is to be used for organic molecule  (which is to
be interacted with big molecule) then will I have to include all the
atoms in constraint .in file (-a flag)



please help me to understand this.



thanks and regards,

JIomm

Hi, JIomm
The charges of NH2 do have a significant difference. I checked the
SQRT(chipot/ssvpot) values for the two RESP fittings, the free resp fitting
is 0.27 and the constrained is 0.40. This means the constrained one has a
little bit worse fitting performance. I think it may be OK to use the
constrained charges. It is a good idea to make a comparison on the binding
energies for both charge sets.

Best
