[gmx-users] importing RNA

[Ken Rotondi]

Okay,

I looked in the aminoacids.dat file and found none of the nucleotides 
listed, just, as the name would imply, aminoacids. None-the-less, I 
added A, U, G, and C at the end of the file.

pdb2gmx behavior is unchanged: the .pdb is read, the xlateat.dat is 
converted successfully, the chains and lengths are correctly listed, 
all occupancies one, it begins processing chain 1, converts 
specbond.dat successfully, then...
Fatal error: Residue 'U' not found in residue topology database

My problem persists.
