Hi,
Thanks for the guidlines
Now in detail what I did with babel .mol2
I converted whole of the docked ligands into .mol2 using babel (.dlg ->
.pdb -> .mol2 ) babel by default uses Gastieger charge method.
Uisng this .mol2 I generated .prepin and .frcmod files using antechamber
and parmchk
At last when I used these files to make .prm and .crd files tleap gave me
following errors "
For atom: .R<LIG 1>.A<C1 1> Could not find vdW (or other) parameters for
type: C.ar
For atom: .R<LIG 1>.A<C2 2> Could not find vdW (or other) parameters for
type: C.ar
For atom: .R<LIG 1>.A<C3 3> Could not find vdW (or other) parameters for
type: C.ar
For atom: .R<LIG 1>.A<C4 4> Could not find vdW (or other) parameters for
type: C.ar
For atom: .R<LIG 1>.A<C5 5> Could not find vdW (or other) parameters for
type: C.ar ..... "

Below I am attaching the .mol2 file

Any help...
