Dear David and GMX users,

I have problem in pdb2gmx, please help me, this problem same as Peter Nagy 
your solved In July 8th 2003.
As per your previous ( Peter Nagy) suggestions I was Changed 
NME --> NAC,
CH3 --> CA
but I am getting another error like

Fatal error: atom N not found in residue 1ACE while combining tdb and rtp 

(details below)

I dont want them to be protonated at two N-termini but for testing I was 
replaced with N in place 1HH3 (!!!) that opens another error like

Fatal error: Residue 'CE' not found in residue topology database

I am looking forward for suggestions to overcome this problem

Thank you very much

Raghu

HI,

Try changing NME to NAC.  I believe gmx will recognize this.  It's just the
naming... check the rtp file that you are using from the /top directory to
see.

David

Dear Gromacs Users!

   Following the suggestion of David Bostick (thank you, Dave), I =
changed=20
NME to NAC. There was no problem with the name ACE. The type of the =
methyl
carbons (originally appeared as CH3) had to be changed to CA, and then =
pdb2gmx
worked, producing a seemingly correct conf.gro file.

    Thanks for the quick help.

  Peter Nagy
