Re: [AMBER] tleap parametrization of metalo-binding proteins

Yep, right thanks!

And coordination bonds between metalls also will not be present in the
final system if we just parametrize the whole system simply using
tleap, no?

BTW the question- how to preserve all atoms from the initial pdbs
changing atom names to amber-like? E,g I am using pdb2pqr
pre-processing of the pdb to amber and by the end it delete everything
but not protein.
Are there another software e.g from amber-tools which will be better
to use instead of pdb2pqr?

Thanks!
J.

You can preserve the atomic ions in PDB file when modeling related system using tleap due to Amber has library file for atomic ions (atomic_ions.lib in recent versions). However, for the HEME group, Amber doesn’t have standard lib file in its database, you can use the files from here: http://sites.pharmacy.manchester.ac.uk/bryce/amber <http://sites.pharmacy.manchester.ac.uk/bryce/amber>, or you can parameterize the system by using MCPB.py.
