Re: [AMBER] Arrangement of molecules in 3D packed state

Hi,
As suggested, I tried to reproduce the below tutorial:
*http://ambermd.org/tutorials/advanced/tutorial13/Construction.html
<http://ambermd.org/tutorials/advanced/tutorial13/Construction.html>*

I am wondering that is this protocol is valid for constructing a lattice of
small molecules like salicylic acid or it is ok for bio-molecules only?

what if I have a novel molecule whose structure detail is not present
anywhere, i.e. sketched using chemdraw and then saved as pdb file??

Please Suggest!

Thanks and regards,
Jac
