[gmx-users] OPLS C-terminal Capping of Glu residue a bug?

[Erik Lindahl]

Hi Marco,

Thanks, I think we've already fixed this, but I'll check it.

You can change the charge manually in the file top/ffoplsaa-c.tdb.

Don't change the atomtype, though - GLY is special since it doesn't 
have any real sidechain.

Cheers,

Erik
