Re: [AMBER] alkyl chain unsaturated bond

Thanks for the reply.

Well, I tried to model glycoside (mannose + alkyl chain with unsaturated
chain).

For the mannose I used GLYCAM_06j.dat force field, For the lipid I used
lipid17.dat
With the help of gafft2 and above mentioned force fields I am able to write
the bond, and angle values.

When I check in the xleap, there is no error.
But when I tried to generate topology and coordinate files using
"saveamberparm" command, I get a long list for the torsion angle where
amber try to fix and at the end it says
error and can not save the topology and coordinate files.

How I should go about this?

I used Ambertools18

Thanks
