Re: [AMBER] Change PBRadii after simulation

Carlos is correct in that you need to regenerate a prmtop file with the
desired radii (and that it affects both GB and PB as long as radiopt=0 in
the PB simulations). However, you don't have to go through tleap to do
this. ParmEd allows you to do this very easily and very quickly with the
'changeRadii' command. So a ParmEd script like the following will do what
you want:

parmed.py -p <your_prmtop> -i input_file

where input_file contains

changeRadii mbondi3
parmout new_radii.prmtop

---
This will create a topology file "new_radii.prmtop" with the mbondi3 radii
instead of whatever you had before.  It recognizes the same keywords that
tleap does.
HTH,
