[gmx-users] LINCS warnings and ligand topology

Dear Users,

I prepared  ligand topologies by two different methods, one with
Acpype and the other with Prodrg.

It is sad that independent simulations give the same (or similar)
numerous Lincs warnings and the system blew up at the end.

Errors look like

LINCS WARNING relative constraint deviation after LINCS:
rms 0.019243, max 0.893307 (between atoms 2073 and 2121)
bonds that rotated more than 30 degrees:
 atom 1 atom 2  angle  previous, current, constraint length
   2073   2121   90.0    0.1758   0.1844      0.0974
Wrote pdb files with previous and current coordinates


I was able to trace down errors that came mainly from the "bad" atom
indexed 2073, which is an Oxygen in a gro file like

131DRG     O3 2073   1.789   5.047   4.061

131DRG    H45 2121   1.701   5.076   4.032


I suspect  atom 2121 is a polar H and it should be deprotonated or
removed ??? or did I miss something ?  but the question is how to
prepare this ligand topology without causing LINCS warnings.

Please also see attached ligand coordinates. This ligand is called
Cholesterol-Sulfate.

Comments and suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Dewey
