Re: [AMBER] tleap split lipid when it shouldn't

Try loading ff14SB before lipid17 in tleap, then load lip_amber.pdb:

source leaprc.ff14SB
source leaprc.lipid17
com=loadpdb lip_amber.pdb

loading : lip_amber.pdb , won't change the output (chek-up the file :
lip_amber_tleap.pdb add in this mails) . Chain are still split.
The purpose of pdb4amber is to change our pdb file in to file that can be ready by tleap, it wil delete water molecule (option --dry) and deleted hydrogene ( option --nohyd ). so tleap will detecte our molecule and add them ATOM folloing the force field chart of the residue/lipid.

not using this step will cause to create some error when loading the pdb file such as :
Creating new UNIT for residue: WAT sequence: 102 Created a new atom named: O within residue: .R<WAT 102> Created a new atom named: H1 within residue: .R<WAT 102> Created a new atom named: H2 within residue: .R<WAT 102>

which bring those error when we want to create the prmtop file ad inpcrd
FATAL: Atom .R<WAT 102>.A<O 1> does not have a type.
FATAL: Atom .R<WAT 102>.A<H1 2> does not have a type.
FATAL: Atom .R<WAT 102>.A<H2 3> does not have a type.
