Dear Francois,
I have loaded both leaprc.ff12SB and leaprc.GLYCAM_06h for my dipeptide
(Lys-Fru) as non-standard amino acid residue. Then I have loaded the new
FF.lib with the head and tail were defined and the pdb file of the protein
in xleap but I still have a problem with atom type. I got the following
error
Unit Editor: > check x

Unfotunately I can not find this angle parameter. Please, any suggestions
will be appreciated. Please I attached both my dipeptide (FLY.off) and a
pdb file for protein (protein.pdb).
Best Regards,

Ibrahim
