Sorry for the incomplete reply. version 4.5.3, command: pdb2gmx -f guan.pdb -ignhI tried using -ter, but that did not help.
It appears that pdb2gmx is not equipped to handle the case of an isolated nucleotide. Keep in mind that pdb2gmx is intended for use with repeat building blocks of monomers, not isolated molecules. The default behavior is to assign a 5' end with no phosphate (i.e. RG rather than pRG). Attempting to choose "None" for a terminus leaves an incomplete phosphate group (i.e. PO3 instead of PO4) and thus a fatal error about a "dangling bond." I'm guessing this has been your experience?
There are two potential solutions:1. Write an .rtp entry of a complete, custom RG nucleotide with the desired PO4 5' end.
2. Write a new entry in rna.n.tdb that adds another phosphate oxygen and adjusts charges appropriately by replacing the existing O and P atoms, at least.
