Perfect, thank you so much, I think it is an error in the manual too.

Thank you again it helped me

It's not clear from your mail where you find the atom listed as "CT" and
what you are comparing. The atom type of the beta carbon is indeed CT for
those two amino acids in the amino12.lib file, but if there is an error
it's almost certainly in the manual, not the force field itself. The force
field atom typing got branched as a matter of necessity when researchers
found that differentiation of the various amino acids was necessary to
reproduce Chi1 and Chi2 angle profiles.

I don't know what level of automation and integration among the various
amino acids (i.e. fitting all parameters for all amino acids
simultaneously) Simmerling group had when they made their side chain
parameters back in 2011-2012. Today, have the means to completely
integrate the parameter development, branch atom types, and monitor which
parameters apply to which amino acids in the mdgx package, but it does not
write manuals for us.
