Hi Francois,

Following your suggestions, I have got the dCTP2 and successfully load it
into leap. Thank you so much!

However, some other problems came up. I should've told you my project in
more detail before. If this wastes too much time, I am really sorry for
that.

Here is what I am doing:

I have a protein-DNA-dCTP2 complex along with its pdb file downloaded from
the protein data bank.
When I load the pdb file into leap, I have a problem with recognizing the
CTP residue.
Now I have the dCTP2 file in the library, but leap still couldn't recognize
this CTP.
I know I need to modify the pdb file so that it can match dCTP2 before
loading to leap.
But dCTP2 consists of four residues (P2M, P1, P1, C5), and I think leap
requires that one residue should have all the atoms named uniquely. My
current understanding is that leap will not recognize my CTP in pdb file
due to different formatting.

I searched the archive and found that people had similar problems long time
before, unfortunately I didn't find a good solution to that.

I was wondering is there a good solution for this kind of problem now ? or
there is a way to go around it.


Here is the file I am using:
Ternary3.pdb (I did some modification and tried to match the dCTP2, but
this didn't work or something was wrong )
dCTP2.off


Really sorry for bothering you so long!

Have a nice day!
