The mutation is a leucine to alanine. In the pdb, I deleted everything beyond CG and renamed CG to be HB3. Coincidentally, one the other three mutations I did was also a leucine to alanine mutation, and that one worked fine.

I'm not sure which version of AmberTools I'm running but I'm reasonably certain it should be AmberTools 13.

I assume this is what is causing the error, or is at least a symptom of the true cause. It is the hydrogen that was changed from the rest of the side chain to the hydrogen in alanine. Removing all the atoms in the side chain except for CB and letting leap automatically add the remaining hydrogens does not solve the problem. Looking at the mutated residue in the other three systems shows completely normal behaviour.

Which residue did you try to mutate? And what version of AmberTools are you using?
