Hi

I used a PDB structure for MD simulation which it has a carbamylated Lys
(KCX 220). This residue via carbamyl group bonded to metal in active site.
So I had to define new residue(KCX), I copied parameters of Lys residue and
added carbamyl group and added to .rtp file in amber force field
(99sb)(gromacs5.0.4). I bring KCX parameters in below:

In addition this protein has two Ni ion, that I added its parameters in
.atp .itp and .dat files.
Also my ligand has a F ion that when I docked with the protein, it closed
to Ni ion in active site (distance 2.9 A). when I start MD simulation I
faced with two problems:

1. when I run pdb2gmx gives many warning:

Identified residue MET1 as a starting terminus.
Warning: Residue KCX220 in chain has different type (Other) from starting
residue MET1 (Protein).
Warning: Residue ILE221 in chain has different type (Protein) from starting
residue MET1 (Protein).
Warning: Residue HIS222 in chain has different type (Protein) from starting
residue MET1 (Protein).
Warning: Residue GLU223 in chain has different type (Protein) from starting
residue MET1 (Protein).
Warning: Residue ASP224 in chain has different type (Protein) from starting
residue MET1 (Protein).
More than 5 unidentified residues at end of chain - disabling further
warnings.
Identified residue LEU219 as a ending terminus.

My protein has 570 residue, but as you see the gromacs identified residue
LEU219 as a ending terminus.!

2. when I used -missing option and continued my simulations, after energy
minimization, I extract em.pdb file and I saw the distance between NI ion
in active site with F ion in ligand is much more ( ~5 A) than before in
complex.pdb. This means my ligand isn't stable in active site and it is
moving away!

please help me. what is my mistake?why ligand moving away and why gromacs
doesn't identify end of the protein? Is there a relationship between added
parameters and getting away of ligand?

Thanks
