Re: [AMBER] wrong geometry amide nitrogen

For the residue topology file generated by you, testsirus.prepin, many
torsional angles of CT-C-N-CT have values around 150 to 160 or -160 to
-150. If you know NMR structures of cyclic peptides that have similar
number of residues, could you list the PDB ids?

Thanks
