[gmx-users] Parametrisation of the heteroatomic pdb

Justin, hello!


I've found that D and L-isomers must be topological identicaly so I've used
topology of Leu and Val residues for Dle and Dva resp.

I've added information about topology of that two residues to the .rtp  .hdb
of my force field as well as to the
<http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/File_Formats/.rtp_File>
residuetypes.dat<http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/File_Formats/residuetypes.dat>

Then I've succsesfull generated topology for gramicidin via pdb2gmx.

I have only questions about two terminal CAP groups used in the Gramicidin

It was FOR group on the C-end

HETATM    1  C   FOR A   1A     -3.690  -1.575  -2.801  1.00  0.00
C
HETATM    2  O   FOR A   1A     -3.774  -1.363  -1.586  1.00  0.00
O
HETATM    3  H   FOR A   1A     -4.305  -1.047  -3.545  1.00  0.00
H

and the ETA group  on the N-end

HETATM  267  C1  ETA A  15A      5.148  -0.421   8.762  1.00  0.00
C
HETATM  268  C2  ETA A  15A      3.657  -0.080   8.832  1.00  0.00
C
HETATM  269  N   ETA A  15A      2.813  -1.244   8.933  1.00  0.00
N
HETATM  270  O   ETA A  15A      5.921   0.752   8.985  1.00  0.00
O
HETATM  271 1HN  ETA A  15A      2.507  -1.491   9.845  1.00  0.00
H
HETATM  272  HO  ETA A  15A      5.736   1.339   8.244  1.00  0.00
H
HETATM  273 1H1  ETA A  15A      5.410  -1.174   9.531  1.00  0.00
H
HETATM  274 2H1  ETA A  15A      5.374  -0.849   7.759  1.00  0.00
H
HETATM  275 1H2  ETA A  15A      3.383   0.525   7.938  1.00  0.00
H
HETATM  276 2H2  ETA A  15A      3.492   0.565   9.718  1.00  0.00

I could not find good analogue for that groups in Amber force field so I've
desided to deleate that groups temporary.
Could you tell me how I can add possible Caps on the C and N terms of each
chain of my molecule via pdb2gmx ?
In one tutorial I've found the -term function for that but in my case system
didnt suggest me to add new caps
