Dear all,


I am using AmberTools 16 to assign charges to my molecules and to fit missing parameters for the GAFF using parmchk2. Parmchk gives the following output:

My questions are the following:


1) Why are in some cases two parameters given for the same dihedral?

2) Can the general dihedrals (e.g X-c3-c3-X) be used in all dihedrals following the type or should I follow the parmchk suggestions?

3) How can I recalculate parameters for dihedrals using the atomic charges calculated with Antechamber?


Thank you very much in advance and I wish to all a great day.
