Follow-up. It is easy to make it work. Just needed to be more rigorous. Thank you.


It would be helpful if you describe what you mean. This error message is new to me, and appears to reflect new mechanics in the upcoming Gromacs release. If you describe what the problem was, how you resolved it, what your pdb2gmx command line was, and anything else that might be useful, that would likely help others solve this issue in the future.

    I used -ter option and selected "none" for both terminal ends but I
    still get this error:

    Fatal error:
    There is a dangling bond at at least one of the terminal ends.
    Select a proper terminal entry.

     I have used Mark's definitions for capping residues in the rtp file.

    In the pdb file, this is what the capping residues look like:

ATOM 33 N CBX 5 8.609 2.722 18.430 1.00 1.60 FR1 ATOM 34 H CBX 5 9.198 3.338 17.946 1.00 0.80 FR1 ATOM 35 CH3 CBX 5 7.176 2.594 17.895 1.00 2.17 FR1

            Do I need to edit the aminoacids.n.tdb file as well?


        What are you choosing as your termini when running pdb2gmx?  It
        should be "none," since by capping, you are not choosing a
        protonation state for the N- and C-termini.

                > I am sorry if I did not frame the question correctly,
            but putting
               it very simply, is there a way to use capping residues
            with the
               charmm forcefield if the residues are --COCH3 and NHCH3?

               Yes - you edit a copy of the .rtp file in your working
            directory and
               add whatever you want. Here's what I use in CHARMM
