[Ruben Martinez Buey]

Dear Sergio,

If you look at FAQ´s at the PRODRG web, you will find:

Q: Why does PRODRG insist on renaming my atoms? This is a major pain
when I'm sumitting my structure to the PDB!

     A: Most refinement programs require unique atom identifiers
(names). PRODRG therefore checks for duplicate atoms names in your
input, and if it finds them all
     atoms are renamed. You can prevent this by using a simple trick.
Consider ...

Maybe you can find some help there!

I´ve recently solved the same problem for a small ligand topology for
GROMOS96. I´ve used the GROMOS87 topology generated by PRODRG (I think
it works better if your input is a plain text picture) and converted to
GROMOS96 by hand comparing the parameters in the ifp file for G87 and
G96. Then you have to check wether all bond, angle, dihedral parameters
are OK. I saw some little problems with the chirality, some dihedrals,
angles... This is really tedious, but you can get it!
Hope this help!
with best wishes,
Ruben
