Hi

All needed parameters for [ angles ] in the topology are defined in my .rtp 
file parametrization and also in the ffbonded.itp in the CHARMM27 folder. This 
still don't work. In the topology my [ angles ] block looks like

[ angles ]
;  ai    aj    ak funct            c0            c1            c2            c3
    2     1    19     1
    1     2     3     1    123.75     250.00
    1     2     4     1    117.47     230.00
    3     2     4     1
    2     4     5     1    115.95     105.00


So there are lines missing. 


In my ffbonded.itp angles are all defined like

[ angletypes ]
; i     j       k       func    th0     cth     ub0     cub
; f5: Urey-Bradley
NN3A    CN1A    ON1   5     123.75     250.00
NN3A    CN1A    NN2U   5     117.47     230.00
CN1A    NN2U    HN2   5     115.95     105.00


And in my .rtp file it looks like

; Col 1: angle classification
; Col 2: equilibrium bond angles in degrees
; COl 3: force constant in kcal/(mol*rad^2)

[ angles ]
N1    C2    O2     123.75     250.00
N1    C2    N3     117.47     230.00
C2    N3    H3     115.95     105.00


What is the problem? Why are there still this missing lines in the topology?

Thanks for helping me
Greetings
Lara

If the parameters are not already present in the force field, you have 2 
options:

1. Add them to ffbonded.itp - useful if you have multiple molecules that you 
need to simulate
2. Add them to the topology - the easiest approach

Both effectively accomplish the same thing, but approach #2 is slightly more 
straightforward and does not potentially affect all your simulations should 
something go wrong.
