[AMBER] CCYX not recognized by ff03 in tleap

Hi,

I am trying to build a topology for a protein with a C-terminal Cys
involved in a disulfide bond. The residue is named 'CYX' and I run the
following tleap script:


source /usr/local/lib/amber11/dat/leap/cmd/leaprc.ff03.r1
p = loadPdb /tmp/tmpu35bZfleap_in0.pdb


The leap output at this point is:

Loading PDB file: /tmp/tmpu35bZfleap_in0.pdb
Unknown residue: CCYX number: 55 type: Terminal/last
..relaxing end constraints to try for a dbase match
  -no luck
Creating new UNIT for residue: CYX sequence: 56

...
and from there on everything goes wrong of course.

I think this used to work with Amber 8 and the ff99 forcefield but I
haven't got any Amber 8 installation running anywhere so I cannot be
sure. Could also be that I simply never tried this before. The
internal CYX residues are recognized perfectly. This is how the end of
the PDB looks like

ATOM 842 N CYX 56 18.647 36.632 30.550 0.00 0.00 N

TER 852 CYX 56
ATOM 853 Na+ Na+ 57 24.745 43.506 22.416 0.00 0.00 N
END

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Many thanks in advance!
