Hello AMBER experts,

I am attempting to load the new chi parameters by Zgarbová, et al. (J.
Chem. Theory Comput., 2011, 7 (9), pp 2886–2902). I am following
instructions on http://fch.upol.cz/en/rna_chi_ol/. I am pretty sure
that the parameters loaded correctly, but I want to verify this before
I invest 4 months in 12 simulations each :-)

My input file, xleap.ol, is as follows:

source /usr/local/amber/openmpi-intel/amber11/dat/leap/cmd/oldff/leaprc.ff99
source /usr/local/amber/openmpi-intel/amber11/dat/leap/cmd/leaprc.ff99bsc0
loadoff RNA_CI.lib
loadamberprep all_nuc94_ol_bsc0.in
loadamberparams frcmod.ol.dat
mol = loadpdb rna.caau.pdb
solvateoct mol TIP3PBOX 8.65
addions mol Na+ 0
saveAmberParm mol prmtop inpcrd
quit

However, this produces the errors:

1)

I can't find a reference to this on the AMBER mailing list archives.

2) A 3-year old email on
http://structbio.vanderbilt.edu/archives/amber-archive/2008/3972.php
says that this is "innocuous".
+Currently only Sp3-Sp3/Sp3-Sp2/Sp2-Sp2 are supported
+---Tried to superimpose torsions for: *-C4-C5-*
+--- With Sp2 - Sp0
+--- Sp0 probably means a new atom type is involved
+--- which needs to be added via addAtomTypes

3) Residues lacking connect0/connect1 -
   these don't have chain types marked:

An email by Bill Ross says this is fine:
http://structbio.vanderbilt.edu/archives/amber-archive/2009/3742.php

Output from rdparm, dihedral :1.N1 gives:

     247: 1.225 2.57 1.0 :1.O4' :1.C1' :1.N1 :1.C6 (8,9,11,12)
E 248: 1.635 0.29 2.0 :1.O4' :1.C1' :1.N1 :1.C6 (8,9,11,12)
E 249: 0.937 3.24 3.0 :1.O4' :1.C1' :1.N1 :1.C6 (8,9,11,12)
E 250: 0.310 0.56 4.0 :1.O4' :1.C1' :1.N1 :1.C6 (8,9,11,12)

which is different than the standard rna99 parameters

     259: 2.500 0.00 1.0 :1.O4' :1.C1' :1.N1 :1.C6 (8,9,11,12)
E 260: 0.000 0.00 2.0 :1.O4' :1.C1' :1.N1 :1.C6 (8,9,11,12)

,which also produces differences between :2.C5' in both residues, so I
am pretty confident it loaded properly, but I would like to verify
this before such a massive time investment.

Thanks for your expertise!
