[AMBER] antechamber problem

Dear Amber experts,


I have on my server AMBER16 and AMBER TOOLS16.

The ligand MS75 in my protein-ligand complex needs previous parametrisation by ANTECHAMBER.

The MS75 ligand has a total charge -1.

Applying original MOPAC2016 with AM1 hamiltonian I have calculated the MS75

without any problem.

Unfortunately, the standard AMBER command line:


antechamber -i MS75.pdb -fi pdb -o MS75.mol2 -fo mol2 -c bcc -s 2

returns with error message because the input MS75.pdb was incorrectly interpreted as having charge=0

Running: /var/spool/scratch/shokhen/amber16/bin/bondtype -j full -i ANTECHAMBER_BOND_TYPE.AC0 -o ANTECHAMBER_BOND_TYPE.AC -f ac

Running: /var/spool/scratch/shokhen/amber16/bin/atomtype -i ANTECHAMBER_AC.AC0 -o ANTECHAMBER_AC.AC -p gaff
Total number of electrons: 231; net charge: 0
INFO: Number of electrons is odd: 231
      Please check the total charge (-nc flag) and spin multiplicity (-m flag)

Running: /var/spool/scratch/shokhen/amber16/bin/sqm -O -i sqm.in -o sqm.out
Error: cannot run "/var/spool/scratch/shokhen/amber16/bin/sqm -O -i sqm.in -o sqm.out" of bcc() in charge.c properly, exit



The top of smq.in file automatically generated by bcc parameter in the antechamber command line
demonstrates incorrect molecular charge definition based on input coordinates of the MS75.pdb:

Run semi-empirical minimization
 &qmmm
    qm_theory='AM1', grms_tol=0.0005,
  scfconv=1.d-10, qmcharge=0,


Could somebody advise me how to modify the command line

antechamber -i MS75.pdb -fi pdb -o MS75.mol2 -fo mol2 -c bcc -s 2


in order to setup the charge=-1 for MS75 ligand?


Thank you,

Michael
