Hi everybody,

I want to use pdb2gmx for my protein.
My protein has a ACE cap at one termini. And I looked it up in the
aminoacids.rtp file and there is also a ACE entry.

But still I get an error when using pdb2gmx

my command is like this:

pdb2gmx -f 3m71_hyd_cap.pdb -o 3m71.gro -p 3m71.top -ter -lys -arg -asp
-glu -his -water tip3p -ff amber03

I use it this why because I want to the residues to be protonated (-lys
-arg -asp -glu -his) and the termini shell be not charged (-ter)

My error is:

Atom HH1 in residue ACE 5 was not found in rtp entry ACE with 6 atoms
while sorting atoms.

I understand that there is a different between my ACE definition and the
one form gromacs.

The ACE in my file look like this:


ATOM      1  CH3 ACE     5     -15.187 -10.824 -17.012  1.00  0.00
   C
ATOM      2  C   ACE     5     -15.919 -10.927 -15.673  1.00  0.00
   C
ATOM      3  O   ACE     5     -15.898  -9.978 -14.893  1.00  0.00
   O
ATOM      4 1H   ACE     5     -14.703  -9.826 -17.094  1.00  0.00
   H

ATOM      6 3H   ACE     5     -15.914 -10.956 -17.845  1.00  0.00
   H



And the definition in gromacs looks like this:

[ ACE ]
  [ atoms ]
   HH31    HC           0.076010    1
    CH3    CT          -0.190264    2
   HH32    HC           0.076011    3
   HH33    HC           0.076010    4
      C    C            0.512403    5
      O    O           -0.550170    6
  [ bonds ]
   HH31   CH3
    CH3  HH32
    CH3  HH33
    CH3     C
      C     O
  [ impropers ]
    CH3    +N     C     O


The differ in the names of the hydrogen atoms.

So what can I do now that they are the same?

I already tried to name the ones in my pdb file like the ones in the rtp
file (HH33 instead of 3H). And I tried to name the hydrogens in the rtp
file like the ones in pdb file (H1 instead of HH31).

But nothing worked.


Use -ignh and pdb2gmx will rebuild all hydrogens for you.
