Thanks, Marc. In general the system may be a little more complicated
than just a protein - I may have included cofactors or other small
molecules parameterised by antechamber. I guess if I load the parameters
for these first it should work? An even quicker way would be if I could
generate both files from tleap in the first place - looks like the
remove command might do what I want. Unfortunately I'll have to get the
residue number programmatically (this is being called from a script) but
I think that should be possible.

One further question - how can I specify in tleap that the "WAT"
residues from the PDB file correspond to TIP4P (or any specific water
model)?

Thanks,
Paul

How about simply writing a pdb with one less water (mod.pdb) and then
use
leap, e.g. on tleap (after loading ff):

mol _ loadpdb mod.pdb
saveamberparm mol mod.parm mod.rst

( _ should be equals sign)
