Re: [AMBER] Error in minimization

As Jason said, you should visualize your structure. Checkoverlap suggested
there are many clashes. You need to look at the system
to figure out what the cause of these clashes are. It's possible that your
structure is completely messed up. It's also possible that the clashes
are minor and can be fixed with minimzation. My guess based on the extreme
closeness is that your modeled structure is bad.
