Re: [AMBER] PDB file carbohydrates naming problem

Hello,

Thank you for the quick reply. Please let me know where can I find the
naming templates.

1. By the way, PDB4AMBER generated the TER cards after each NLN, I can
manually delete them.
2. NLN are 0YB are the correct naming. But as you can see in my leap input
file, I already source the force field specific for glycans. Now the only
problem is the glycan.

3. I used PDB2PQR to predict the protonation states of the protein, PDB2PQR
generates the hydrogens. I manually deleted all the hydrogens. Does it
influence the protonation state of the protein?

Thank you so much.

Best regards,
Rui
