Hi Carlos Sir,

Sorry for late on my part..

as you've said i tried all the parameters to find out what exactly is going
wrong with nitrogen....

you got it correct when i load a normal RNA with ff14SB without my
parameters and no frcmod i am experiencing the problem. And the same system
works fine with ff99bsc0...

I am herewith sending the minimized pdbs for your reference...

Kindly guide me in this case.....

Thanking you in advance.....
