I suspect that you will need to specify topology and parameters files
for the rest of the protein. You probably should obtain up-to-date
files, but Xplor-NIH ships with some of these in
toppar/topamber.inp and toppar/parmallh3x.pro.

However, unless you have a particularly good reason to use Amber
parameters, I suggest that you instead generate Xplor-NIH-compatible
parameters for your non-natural residues, perhaps with the aid of
PRODRG (http://davapc1.bioch.dundee.ac.uk/cgi-bin/prodrg)
