disulfide bondTry renaming CYX to CYS, pdb2gmx should find the disulfide bond by itself.

  Dear Gromacs Users!

     I created a pdb file for a protein in Sybyl, where I had a disulfide bond.
  Sybyl distinguished these two residues by CYX as compared to the regular CYS.
     When I used pdb2gmx, the system complained about CYX and responded that
  tries to consider these residues as CYS2. It was fine, but in the conf.gro and topol.top files I noticed that the backbone H (to N) was not generated.
  Furthermore, the S-S bond was not generated in the topol.top file.
     Perhaps I could edit this latter file by following the topology and charge
  parameters for a backbone H(N), but I do not have its coordinates in the conf.gro. I am sure that there is a simple way to handle the S-S in Gromacs.
     What should I modify in the original .pdf file to get correct .gro and
  .top files?

  Thanks, Peter Nagy
