Re: [AMBER] secondary structure calculation using Cpptraj

Hi,

By default the 'secstruct' command looks for Amber default backbone
atom names. If you are using a topology where these names are
different, you will have to change the backbone atom names accordingly
(with [namen <N name>], [nameh <H name>], [namec <C name>], and/or
[nameo <O name>]). For example, if you are using a CHARMM topology,
the backbone amide hydrogen is named 'HN', not 'H'. You can change
this by adding 'nameh HN' to your 'secstruct' commands.

Hope this helps,

-Dan
