Hi Acoot,
I'm pretty sure leap will only automatically build protons based on residue
names, whether some are there or not. I believe standard neutral residues
are labeled HIS and +1 residues are labeled HIP. Neutral residues with
epsilon protonation are HIE. Of course all of that can be quickly verified
using xleap.
As for assigning protonation states, I don't know what the AMBER standard
protocol is. There must be a program for doing that based off empirical
pKas in AmberTools somewhere and I'm sure someone else more knowledgeable
than me will reply by the end of the day.
Regards,
Brian
