Re: [AMBER] Adding a ROH to a oligosaccharide

Heh... I'm not sure if you realize it, but you found one of tleap's
more interesting features...

Before we proceed: I assume you realize that your non-reducing end is
also missing some bits. So, I'm not addressing that. It's the reason
for this error:

ERROR: The unperturbed charge of the unit: -0.388000 is not integral.

If you need help with that, say so.

The following is the way one would immediately think to do it. But,
don't do this because tleap flips the chirality at the reducing end.

==========================
"normal" way
flips chirality (*)
don't use!!
==========================
source leaprc.GLYCAM_06h
m = loadpdb new.pdb
set m head m.164.C1
m = sequence { ROH m }
saveamberparm m flipped.parm7 flipped.rst7
==========================

The following way is a workaround for the chirality flip. Depending
on how you fill in the non-reducing end, this might require a few
extra steps on your part.

==========================
chirality maintaining workaround
==========================
source leaprc.GLYCAM_06h
m = loadpdb new.pdb
n = copy ROH ## for safety in case you use ROH later in the session
set m tail m.164.C1
set n head n.1.O1
m = sequence { m n }
saveamberparm m m.parm7 m.rst7
==========================

And... carefully inspect your files using something along the lines of:

vmd m.parm7 m.rst7

(*) During some operations, leap flips chirality at open-valence reducing-ends.
