Re: [AMBER] [Sender Not Verified] Problem with Zn2+ ion in a pdb file for a receptor-ligand complex

 Dear Thomas,

Many thanks for your kind email. Here is the content of my frcmod file:

This frcmod file is for ZNA (zinc 2+ ion)
MASS
ZNA 65.400

NONBON
ZNA 1.10 0.013

As you can see there is no parameter for bond angles and torsions in frcmod file. I would have thought that Zn2+ is going to be involved just in nonbonded interactions. I am assuming that Amber decides to create bonds between Zn and neighbouring atoms and asking for those parameters. Is there any work around for this problem?

Cheers,
Siavoush

 Hi Siavoush,

your leap output lists a few bond, angle and torsion parameters that are
missing, that is why it isn't saved. This is most likely due to atom name
mismatches somewhere. Could you check that your frcmod file contains the
parameters listed as missing, e.g. a bond for atom types O2-ZNA or an angle
term for CR-NB-ZNA? Since all missing parameters involve the ZNA atom, my
suspicion is that you have a different name for the Zn ion in the frcmod
file.

Kind Regards,

Thomas
