  Dear gmx users,


I have a problem about the topology output of pdb2gmx.
There is a formyl residue as N-terminal in my .pdb file. I know that the pdb 
file is correct in agreement with RCSB .pdb files.
The
  force field I have to use is gmx ( I need to regenerate
  some results ), so I defined the formyl residue as a new residue in gmx
  force field. But when I get the output of pdb2gmx the topology shows
that the N atom of the next residue has 3 H atoms ,I think It means that
  the formyl residue is not connected to the next residue ( here: Valine
). As a result the total charge derived by pdb2gmx is +2e and it is not
correct regards to
  the protein structure. I don't know what is the problem? Is it related
to the force field files?


Did you follow all of the instructions here?

It also sounds like you are not setting termini properly using pdb2gmx -ter. Please provide your complete pdb2gmx command any any relevant screen output.
