Hi Lachele,
Thanks for the reply! As Francois suggested, charges I should be able to get from the RED server. For using the GLYCAM parameters I need to use the GLYCAM residues and atom types. For the first bGlcpNAc I used 1YB-1, then I made muramic acid as GlcpNAc with 3 connections: on position 4 the first NAG is connected, position 1 terminated with an OH and on position 3 lactic acid is attached. So I used WYB-2, ROH-3 and a LAC-4, but the bonds are not generated correctly between them in leap after loading the pdb file. I am just only learning how leap works and here I need a branch and I do not know how to make it. Do I have to manually edit the bonds in leap? Are the residue types I used correct?
I tried the GLYCAM oligosaccharide builder, understandably there was no lactic acid, but also I did not find a way to make a branch on position 3 as there were only linkages from position 1 or 2.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Krisztina

We don't have structural and charge information for muramic acid. I'm
not aware that anyone in the group is working on it either. Our
parameters should work, but you would need to develop charges.
