[AMBER] Problems with constant pH calc Amber 11

I have been unsuccessful at setting up constant pH calculations with my
protein. I am using Amber 11. I would greatly appreciate assistance with
the following:

1) Review the steps below and let me know if my setup is OK (not sure
whether all steps are necessary),

2) I am currently encountering the following error when attempting to
perform STEP 5:

           At line 1359 of file _mdread.f (unit = 18, file = 'cpin_1')

Fortran runtime error: Cannot match namelist object name 'residue:

 

The cpin_1 file is attached. I am hoping to resolve these issues so that I
can live to see another sunrise.

 

Thanks !!

STEP 1. Creating prmtop & inpcrd files:

source leaprc.constph

set default PBradii mbondi2

protein1 = loadpdb "protein.pdb"

saveamberparm protein1 prmtop inpcrd

 

STEP 2. First minimization (protein restrained):

mpirun -np 10 $AMBERHOME/exe/sander.MPI -O -i min_1.in -o min_1.out -c
inpcrd -p prmtop -r min_1.rst < /dev/null &

 

where, min_1.in:

&cntrl

  imin=1, maxcyc=1000, ncyc=500,

  ntb=0, igb=2,

  cut=30

/

500.0

RES 1 1272

END

END

 

STEP 3. Second minimization (entire system unrestrained):

mpirun -np 10 $AMBERHOME/exe/sander.MPI -O -i min_2.in -o min_2.out -c
min_1.rst -p prmtop -r min_2.rst < /dev/null &

 

where, min_2:

&cntrl

  imin=1, maxcyc=2500, ncyc=1000,

  ntb=0, igb=2,

  cut=30

/

 

STEP 4. Create cpin file:

ambpdb -p prmtop < min_2.rst | cpinutil.pl > cpin_1

 

STEP 5. Heating over 20 ps (protein restrained):

mpirun -np 10 $AMBERHOME/exe/sander.MPI -O -i md_1.in -o md_1.out -c
min_2.rst -p prmtop -r md1.rst -cpin cpin_1 -cpout cpout_1 -cprestrt
cprestrt_1 < /dev/null &

 

where, md_1:

&cntrl

  imin=0, irest=0, ntx=1,

  ntb=0, ntc=2, ntf=2,

  cut=30.0,

  ntr=1,

  nrespa=1,

  ig=-1,

  ntt=3, gamma_ln=1.0, tempi=0.0, temp0=300.0,

  igb=2,

  saltcon=0.1,

  tol=0.000001,

  icnstph=1, solvph=3, ntcnstph=5,

  nstlim=10000, dt=0.002,

  ntpr=500, ntwx=500, ntwr=1000

/

10.0

RES 1 1272

END

END

 

STEP 6. Remove excess zero data from cpin_1:

cpinutil.pl cprestrt_1 > cpin_2

 

STEP 7. Equilibration 100 ps (entire sysyem unrestrained):

mpirun -np 10 $AMBERHOME/exe/sander.MPI -O -i md_2.in -o md_2.out -c
md_1.rst -p prmtop -r md_2.rst -cpin cpin_2 -cpout cpout_2 -cprestrt
cprestrt_2 < /dev/null &

 

where, md_2:

&cntrl

  imin=0, irest=1, ntx=5,

  ntb=2, ntc=2, ntf=2,

  cut=30.0,

  ntr=0,

  nrespa=1,

  ig=-1,

  pres0=1.0,

  ntp=1, taup=2,

  ntt=3, gamma_ln=1.0, tempi=300.0, temp0=300.0,

  igb=2,

  saltcon=0.1,

  tol=0.000001,

  icnstph=1, solvph=3, ntcnstph=5,

  nstlim=50000, dt=0.002,

  ntpr=500, ntwx=500, ntwr=1000

/

 

STEP 8. Remove excess zero data from cpin_2:

cpinutil.pl cprestrt_2 > cpin_3

 

STEP 9. MD production run (10 ns):

mpirun -np 10 $AMBERHOME/exe/sander.MPI -O -i md_3.in -o md_3.out -c
md_2.rst -p prmtop -r md_3.rst -cpin cpin -cpout cpout_3 -cprestrt
cprestrt_3 < /dev/null &

 

where, md_3:

&cntrl

  imin=0, irest=1, ntx=5,

  ntb=2, ntc=2, ntf=2,

  cut=30.0,

  ntr=0,

  nrespa=1,

  ig=-1,

  pres0=1.0,

  ntp=1, taup=2,

  ntt=3, gamma_ln=1.0, tempi=300.0, temp0=300.0,

  igb=2,

  saltcon=0.1,

  tol=0.000001,

  icnstph=1, solvph=3, ntcnstph=5,

  nstlim=5000000, dt=0.002,

  ntpr=500, ntwx=500, ntwr=1000
