Hi Martin,

I found a problem with my ligand for it's charge,because my ligand
includes dicarboxylic acid,so it' charge could be -2.But when I added my
ligand to MCPB,I used the command "antechamber -i ca.pdb -fi pdb -o
ca.prepin -fo prepi -c bcc -s 2" and "parmchk -i ca.prepin -f prepi -o
ca.frcmod" to get the files ca.frcmod and ca.prepin,I forgot to add "-nc
-2" to the first command,then I used frcmod2xml,prep2xml to convert
ca.frcmod,ca.prepin,so I got the wrong calib.xml.
My question is that if I used this wrong calib.xml in MCPB,could it only
affect the partial charges for metal center?The force constants of metal
center is affected too?

Best Regards
JiYuan

Then see which components of the energy term (bond, angle, dihedral, etc.) decrease rapidly, and which ones increase rapidly. This information may provide clues as to which parameters are wrong. Also, save a trajectory at every step, or a restart file at every step, and see how exactly the geometry deforms on a step-by-step basis.
