Sowmya,

Sorry for late reply, both cc'ed email didn't arrive in Inbox.


If you want to keep specific TYR and LYS in deprotonated or protonated
state through out constant pH MD simulation then do not put them in
titrating residue list. When you are creating cpin file by using
cpinutil.py, do not mention those residue names.

In CpHMD/pH-REMD protocol, titratable residues are parametrized with all
possible protons. These protons retain their position through out CpHMD
simulation. Suppose Tyr is in protonated state and during CpHMD, it was
allowed to change into deprotonated state. Then zero charge will be
assigned to titratable proton and charges on backbone and side-chain atoms
will be updated according to deprotonated state of Tyr residue. (Read
protonation State Models section in this paper -
http://doi.wiley.com/10.1002/jcc.20139 )

CpHMD/pH-REMD prmtop and trajectory files will have all titratable protons
atomtypes and co-ordinates irrespective of protonation state. That's why,
Tyr's titratable proton co-ordinates were there in pdb file. Protonation
state information of residue will only be in cpout files. That's why, to
analyze CpHMD/pH-REMD trajectories, cpout and trajectories files must be
used together. One example is given here-
http://ambermd.org/tutorials/advanced/tutorial18/section4.htm. In this
example, a tcl script has been written by using cpout files which will
delete all "ghost" protons while visualizing in vmd.


Let me know if it clear some doubts,
