Thanks for the reply and guidance!

I have one last question about running simulation in PMEMD and 1-4 scaling.
I have used latest version of AmberTool-1.4 (which I have downloaded couple
of days ago) and applied latest patch to Amber10 and compiled PMEMD with
latest patch. Now, if I correctly understand, the parmtop file has the
differential 1-4 scaling information and if I run PMEMD without any explicit
information of SCNB and SCEE, it will do the differential 1-4 scaling for
protein and carbohydrate automatically.

I will be very thankful for the any response.
