Messagemake sure you use the N-term pro option in pdbgmx and check atom
types for N-term patch in .top and .rtp (library file)

  Subject: [gmx-users] terminal proline and OPLSAA charges


  I am trying to set up a topology file from a pdb file using pdb2gmx. My
peptide starts with a proline in the N-terminus. I ran the command

  pdb2gmx -f ligand.pdb -o ligand -p ligand -i ligand

  chose OPLS-AA/L force field, and noticed that the total charge of the
system, as reported in the output of command, was 1.870e, NOT AN INTEGER. If
I delete the prolines from the N-terminus, the problem goes away. As long as
the peptide starts with a proline at the N-terminus, the total charge is not
an integer. What is going on?

  I am attaching the PDB file of the peptide for your reference.

  Thanks.

  Huafeng
