Dear AMBER users,
I have a prmtop file corresponding to an explicitly solvated protein,
and I would like to create a second prmtop file that is near identical,
but has exactly one fewer water molecules. I have been using the rdparm
program to do this, via the "stripwater" command, and it works fine when
the solvent is TIP3P, but not TIP4P - rdparm fails to recognise the
presence of any waters in this case. I have tested this for rdparm from
AMBER9, and also from AmberTools 1.5.
I have looked through the AmberTools manual, and cpptraj claims to be
able to write modified prmtop files, but with the caveat that they are
only suitable for visualisation, not simulation. I need to be able to
pass my modified prmtop file to sander.
Is there a way of doing this without having to write some code to modify
the prmtop file myself?
Thanks,
Paul
