Hi Fabian,

For the Mg2+ ions, a nonbonded model is suggested due to the ionic nature of Mg2+.

For the Cu2+ ion, I am not sure I understand your question correctly or not. So you have a cyclen-Cu(II) system as a ligand, and does this ligand have covalent bond with the protein?

So the same question here, how should I prepare the Cu+2 in this case??
