Dear AMber users,

I run RED to get the resp charges for my Lys-sugar molecule which I will later add to the peptide (see attachment). Now I need to generate parameters however I dont really know how to start it ? is there any tutoraial for that? what force field should I use?
Thank you for any advices

/Urszula

As Per suggested the charge values are in the mol2 file format...

You used 5 conformations in a charge derivation procedure involving
multiple orientations and multiple conformations; so at the end R.E.D.
ends up with 5 mol2 files with different Cartesian coordinates and
with identical charge values. You can use one of these 5 files as the
Cartesian coordinates do not matter when one build a new FF library.

Several comments about these 5 conformations:
- I guess you have good reasons for selecting these 5 conformations...
- did you look at them? are they really different after the geometry
optimization step?
- is each of these 5 conformations representative of what you want (I
guess your input P2N file)?
(we also often exclude non-representaive hydrogen bonds)

regards, Francois
