Re: [AMBER] atom does not have a type

Hi,

If you haven't already, I recommend you read section 6.8 of the
AmberTools manual (Preparing PDB Files), which has helpful advice on
how to prepare PDBs for LEaP.

This warning just means that you have ATOM records with the same
residue number but different residue name, so LEaP is splitting them
into two separate residues. This is only a problem if you don't have
residue libraries for OL and PC.

This has been discussed on the list before (see e.g.
http://archive.ambermd.org/201306/0730.html). I find it best in such
cases to just remove the 'H' atoms from the PDB and let LEaP build
them back in from residue templates. Be aware that the default
N-terminal amino acid residue templates in Amber are protonated (it
appears from the naming scheme that in your PDB the N-terminal ASN may
be neutral).

Hope this helps,

-Dan
