Dear Francois,
I Still have one more question (probably). I am trying to link my dipeptide
(LYS-FRU fragment) back into my protein. In the protein, LYS residue is in
the second position and when load my pdb file into xleap an extra OXT atom
automatically added to the first residue and two hydrogen atoms to the the
third residue.
I am using the following script for LYS-FRU Fragment:
./xleap -s -f leaprc.ff12SB
glycam_06 = loadamberparams GLYCAM_06h.dat
X = loadmol2 X.mol2
set X head X.1.N
set X tail X.1.C16
set X.1 connect0 X.1.N
set X.1 connect1 X.1.C16
set X.1 restype saccharide
set X.1 name "mol"
set X.1.C1 type CG
.
.
.
set X.1.H62 type H1
then I loaded my protein into xleap. Now, How can I bind the LYS-FRU to the
2nd and 3rd residues (the preceding and the following residues).

Regards, Francois

Ibrahim
