ie. do the replacement on your input coordinate file, not the .rtp!

Dr. Mark Abraham,
My pdb file contains HB1 and HB2 on a beta carbon of a cysteine. Well, connected to that
carbon (other than the alpha carbon) is the sulfur molecule. The only logical placement
of for "HB3" is to that sulfur, except that the sulfur should not have any
hydrogens bound to it since it is supposed form a disulfide bridge with another cysteine.
Because of that, I am sure you can understand why I am scratching my head on
this issue...
HB3 is sometimes the nomenclature of beta carbons (some programs write HB2 and
HB3 instead of HB1 and HB2, and the B means "beta"). Your description doesn't
make any real sense to me. Visualize your structure. If you have a full set of
protons on Cys, you should have HA, HB1, and HB2 on the side chain to make the
force field happy. If there is an HG on SG (the sulfur atom), then it will be
deleted by pdb2gmx when you tell it to create a disulfide.
