Hi Jason,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I am using the following tleap script to add a bond between HEME and HIS.

loadamberparams frcmod.hemall
loadamberprep heme_all.in
addAtomTypes { { "DZ" "Zn" "sp3" } { "Zn" "Zn" "sp3" } }
loadOff znb.lib
loadOff hin.lib
loadOff hydroxide.lib
loadamberparams frcmod.zinc
fep = loadpdb clnFePPIX.pdb

bond fep.103.13 fep.181.1

addions fep Na+ 0
solvatebox fep TIP3PBOX 10.00 0.75
saveamberparm fep fep.prm.top fep.prm.crd
quit

The next thing I want to do would be to mimic the following restraints:

restrainAngle fep fep.103.14 fep.103.13 fep.181.1 20 124.0
restrainAngle fep fep.103.11 fep.103.13 fep.181.1 20 127.4
restrainAngle fep fep.103.13 fep.181.1 fep.181.2 20 93.1
restrainAngle fep fep.103.13 fep.181.1 fep.181.23 20 98.6
restrainAngle fep fep.103.13 fep.181.1 fep.181.39 20 106.6
restrainAngle fep fep.103.13 fep.181.1 fep.181.55 20 103.4


However, I am not sure how to use setangle to do this in the topology file
derived from the above tleap script as you have suggested.
 It would be really helpful if you please direct me to some document/suggest me
how to go about doing this. If I start my MD with only the bond criterion, the
imidazole ring of HIS undergoes planar motion which I do not want.

Thanks again and I would look forward to hear from you.

Best Regards,
Moitrayee
