Dear Dr. Thomas Steinbrecher
Thanks for your attention
You are right. DG9 and DC18 really are not my residue names.
Thus, since DG and DC are not unique in dna, I useed crgmask =
(:9.O6,H1,N2,H21,H22
| :18.N4,H41,H42,H5).
unfortunately, run was stopped. there is error in reading namelist cntrl at
the end of out file.
Can I use atom number rather than atom name? crgmask =
'.269,271,273,274,275,553,555,556,557'. is it true?
please help me to resolve this problem.
