Hi

First, beware that no one has really tested TPS with constant pH in
amber, so there might be surprises all around.

What happens if you try TPS at constant protonation ? Or even if you do
constant pH TPS at pH=-10 or +10, which effectively keeps protonation
constant ?


Also: if you look at your output, your bond and angles energies are HUGE.

This means yous system more or less blew up somewhere.

You should look at the dynamics file and try to find some bonds that
clearly extended a LOT during your MD, and start debugging backwards
from there.
