 From the CHARMM top_all36_prot.rtf:

PRES CT2          0.00 ! amidated C-terminus
GROUP                  ! use in generate statement
ATOM C    CC      0.55 !
ATOM O    O      -0.55 !     |
GROUP                  !   O=C
ATOM NT   NH2    -0.62 !     |
ATOM HT1  H       0.32 !     NT
ATOM HT2  H       0.30 !    / \
BOND C NT              !  HT1 HT2 (HT1 is cis to O)
BOND NT HT1 NT HT2     !
IMPR C NT CA O C CA NT O
IMPR NT C HT1 HT2 NT C HT2 HT1
