Hi all, I have a question about how pdb2gmx determines the protonation of the His residue in default. To best of my knowledge, His usually has its ND1 nitrogen free in un-protonated state, which might equal to the HISB presents in pdb2gmx. However, when I am treating pdb files by pdb2gmx without specifing exact state of His, the resulting structure contains both HISA (NE2 free) and HISB (ND1 free) state as something listed below,
There are 1155 hydrogen bonds Will use HISB for residue 151 Will use HISB for residue 218 Will use HISB for residue 368 Will use HISA for residue 425 Will use HISB for residue 449 I am assuming that the hydrogen has been added in consideration of steric interaction, however, does this assignment violate the common knowledge? I can't find any references about this issue and am not sure how large influence will be generated. So can you give me any suggestions? Thanks a lot.
