Hi,
In my system, I have a special bond (isopeptide bond, i.e., a bond between amino
group of Lys and the carboxyl terminus of another protein). Before the
simulation, is this bond should be formed or both LYS (which is defined with
different residue name, e.g., LYX) and carboxyl terminus of another protein
(which is Gly in my system; defined as GLX) should be in their standard forms
(-NH3+, and -COO-, respectively). I defined this bond in specbond.dat as:

LYX     NZ      1       GLX     C       1       0.135    LYS2 GLY2


If the isopeptide bond should be present, it must be defined as such. Bonds won't break or form during MD, so if you have ionized groups and no bond, then none will ever emerge. You need to define the state you wish to simulate at the outset of the run.
