Dear All,

I am using Gromacs 3.1.1 with the AMBER port. After following the instructions on the ffamber web-page, pdb2gmx works fine. But according to point 6:

"... However, for nucleic acids this also often causes pdb2gmx to replace an H atom in the first residue of all nucleic acid chains with an incorrect H atom, resulting in non-neutral charge. The correct atom is generally replaced with an atom of type amberXX_25 (hydroxyl H), as pdb2gmx treats it as a terminal hydrogen ..."

Indeed I find this atom in the first residue:

1 amber99_25 1 DG5 H5T 1 0.4422 1.008 ; qtot 0.4422

The solution given (a) is to correct the atom type and charge in the .top file by hand.

My question is:
What is the correct atom type and charge for this hydrogen ?

The ffamber03.rtp contains exactly this atom type and charge in the specification for the residue DG5. So it should be correct ??

Many thanks
Andreas
