Thanks for Mark and Justin's help. But I have new questions as follows:
CYS SG 1 HEME FE 2 0.25 CYS2 HEME 1.residue name A
2.atom name A
3.number of bonds that this atom can form (does the number include the bonds of atom with H atoms?)

It should pertain to the number of bonds you want that atom to form, aside from those in the .rtp entry. See the line for HIS NE2, which forms one bond to FE, but certainly forms other bonds to atoms in the HIS residue.

4.residue name B
5.atom name B
6.number of bonds that this atom can form
7.the reference length for searching for candidate bonds, the margin is ±10% ( It seems the unreasonable length can result in the unexpected bond. does it? )

I don't understand your question. If you define a bond at, i.e. 0.1 nm, pdb2gmx will build a bond if the distance between the two atoms is 0.9 - 1.1 nm. An unreasonable bond will only be formed if you provide an unreasonable search distance.

8.the new name for residue A ( Why new residue name?)

This isn't always relevant. Note that most of the entries in specbond.dat remain unchanged. The only instances of the residue name changing are related to force field-specific disulfide conventions (i.e., CYS vs. CYS2).

9.the new name for residue B
Thanks again. 2010/10/9 Justin A. Lemkul <jalem...@vt.edu <mailto:jalem...@vt.edu>>

        Hi  Mark,

        Thanks for your reply. But, I do not know the meaning of the
        columns in  specbonds.dat. I also  do not find any information
        in the manual 4.0.

        Could you provide something about the specbonds.dat or give some
        explanations.

           question is how can I deal with the two branches of N. Any
           suggestion is appreciated.

           pdb2gmx is intended only for work with linear heteropolymers. Any
           more complex things (e.g. disulfides, branched structures)
        have to
           be engineered using the specbonds.dat mechanism.
