Re: [AMBER] planarity issue during md

About the atom types, carbon atoms in thymin in dna are not aromatic and
have an sp2 atom type, same with my molecule.

I run a dna minimization (amber tutorial1) and I did not notice any
planarity issue. But again, the atom charges are not so different like the
ones I generated in gaussian for my molecule.

I attach a pic with this part of my molecule after a short min in solvent.

Thank you
Sofia
