Hello all
I'm trying to run simulations of a protein that has a zinc 2+ cofactor. The amber manual mentions you can use relevant frcmod files for di/tri/tetravalent ions (e.g. frcmod.ions234lm_126_tip3p has Zn2+ parameters to be used with tip3p, the frcmod file I'm interested in). The problem is LEaP doesn't recognise the Zn2+ species in my pdb file (for some reason the + in Zn2+ seems to be omitted when read from a PDB file so I called my zinc ion Zn2 in the PDB and renamed the Zn2+ in the frcmod to Zn2 to try make them match):
> MPI = loadpdb mpi_noligand.pdb
Warning: Unknown residue: Zn2....
..relaxing end constraints to find a dbase match
Warning: -no luck
# Proceeds to create Zn residue, so I tried to load in the frcmod in question
> loadamberparams frcmod.ions234lm_126_tip3p
Loading parameters: ./frcmod.ions234lm_126_tip3p
.
.
> check MPI
.
FATAL : Atom .R<Zn2 442>.A<Zn2 1> does not have a type.
I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding the amber manual and I'm trying to load the wrong file (or that I need to load an additional file) or if I'm simply getting something more basic wrong like formatting/doing things in the wrong order etc.
Thanks in advance
