I don't understand what you're trying to do...

Is there a reason you deleted every residue except for those 3? By default,
leap turns any residue that's on one end of the TER card into a terminal
residue (the first is the N-terminus, the second is the C-terminus). Thus,
some atoms will have an OXT added to the residue to make it a carboxylate as
others will have an NH3+. If you choose not to terminate them (with a TER
card), then it will bond them according to their connect0 and connect1
atoms.

If you want to cap each, look into the caps ACE, NME, and NHE. However, I'm
really not sure what you're expecting to learn, since these amino acids
won't behave as they would in the entire protein, they'll just be floating
around like free amino acids...

Good luck!
Jason
