[gmx-users] protein problems (aka why me?)

[David L. Bostick]

Hi ..

I did exactly (sort of this) when modelling halorhodopsin.  You need to
create a residue in the database.  Jeremy Smith had a few papers a while
back on a model of the retinal moiety.. you may find this a useful guide
for parameters.
