Dear Thao,

I don't exactly know what the script "protG_mkpsf.inp" does, but could it
be that there are bondlength violations ?
I know pymol automatically draws bonds between atoms within a certain
range. I myself study nucleic acids, and when I have dihedrals in sugars
set wrong Pymol displays the following bond triangle:
  H
 / \
C---C
Which is not stated in my PSF file, and neither in the PDB file.

My suggestions: check bond restraints (if you override defaults) and bond
violations.

Hopefully this is of any use.

Kind regards,
