Dear Justin,
Fatal Error:
Chain identifier 'A' was used in two non-sequential blocks (residue 710,
atom 5449)
I have sometimes this error for some pdb files.
1. Missing atom and residues entries, that GROMACS is unable to reconstruct.
2. HETATM entries which can not be processed using pdb2gmx.
Solution:
After I am reconstructing the pdb file using Swiss pdb viewer program
(that is, the program is doing fixes) , I am deleting the HETATM
entries, I can process it using pdb2gmx.
Is this solution the right ? Are there disadvantages?
Modeling in missing atoms and residues is certainly necessary.
Removing HETATM entries depends entirely upon what those molecules are. pdb2gmx
can process HETATM or ATOM entries, so I suspect that the content of those
HETATM entries is what is causing a problem. If these problematic residues are
artifactual crystallization solvents, ions, etc, then probably you can delete
them. If they serve some functional role (e.g., drug molecule, cofactor, etc),
then you can remove them for the purpose of running pdb2gmx, but you'll
eventually have to deal with them somehow.
