Hi!

You shouldn't use TER cards after the NLNs unless they are actually at
the end of an amino acid chain. They are amino acid (modified), and
don't follow the glycan rules.

Removing hydrogens isn't necessary, but their names need to exactly
match the templates in the force fields. Folks usually prefer to just
remove them rather than rename them all. If any of their positions
are critical, leave those in and make sure the names are right.
Otherwise, it's easier to delete them. Or rename them all if you
prefer to do that.

Your NLN and 0YB atom names need to exactly match the templates as
well. The same hydrogen-naming logic applies, but you must ensure
that the heavy-atom names match.

Do you know how to find the lib and prep files where the templates are
(for naming)?
