Dear David,


thanks for suggestions again.

One question: what should I do with the non-integer charges (below you can
see warning obtained for my solvated system?)

WARNING: The unperturbed charge of the unit: -2.998000 is not zero.

In this case -2 charge came from the protein and ligand should have -1 as
defined during its parametrization:
antechamber -i ligand.pdb -fi pdb -o ligand.mol2 -fo mol2 -c bcc -s 2 -nc -1

but in fact obtaining ligand -0.998000 I've obtained some problems with the
neutralization of my system (See below ). Should I use another charge
assignment method for my ligand?

> addions complex Na+ 0
2 Na+ ions required to neutralize.
Adding 2 counter ions to "complex" using 1A grid
Grid extends from solute vdw + 1.87 to 7.97
Resolution: 1.00 Angstrom.
grid build: 0 sec
Solvent present: replacing closest with ion
     when steric overlaps occur
Calculating grid charges
charges: 3 sec
(Replacing solvent molecule)
Placed Na+ in complex at (-19.80, 1.13, 3.10).
(Replacing solvent molecule)
Placed Na+ in complex at (5.02, -5.38, 5.14).

Done adding ions.
> check complex
Checking 'complex'....
WARNING: The unperturbed charge of the unit: -0.998000 is not zero.
