Dear gmx users,
We are trying to make an intermolecular cystine bond between two
residues in a dimeric protein (S:S - dist.: 0.203). The initial pdb file
should contain the SS bond. Therefore, we used the pdb2gmx -ss -merge to
generate the disulfide bond. Apparently it did not form the cystine and
added hydrogen atoms (HG). We have increased the cutoff in specbond.dat
(directory: /share/top/specbond.dat) from 0.2 to 0.4 and repeated the
commands above. We still did not observe the bond formation.
Someone could help us ?
Thanks in advance,
The distance in the specbond file is not a cutoff but a bondlength. Your
atoms should be within 10% of the target bondlength for the bond to be
made. If pdb2gmx -merge does not work I'm not sure what the problem
could be. Have you tried without -ss as well?
