Dear Dallas:

Thanks for your response. It consists of many repeating units. Do you
mean I can write the rtp entry for one repeating unit and give it a
residue name. After that I need to insert this into the force field
rtp file, right? How can I do that? It seems I can not change the rtp
file.  Thanks.
