Thanks David, I could edit the specbond.dat and thus pdb2gmx could make the
bond between the desired residues. However, still there are two problems..
1) Once the bond is formed the C-terminal glycine cannot be defined as a
terminal one, but pdb2gmx treats it as a terminal residue and thus modifies it
to put two oxygens.. Gly-COO- (but this can be taken care of by using -ter card
while running pdb2gmx)
However the second one is more problematic..i.e. addition of hydrogen to the
modified Lysine residue. I cannot define it to put it in the same plane as NZ,
CE and the C from Glycine. Is there anyway to do that?
As a general point, the people you're asking for help won't remember
anything about where the modified lysine is in your sequence or how it
has been modified. Do spell things out thoroughly.
Adding hydrogens is controlled by the hydrogen database files (.hdb
files) whose format is described in Chapter 5 of the manual. It's
possible you will be able to specify the C atom of a previous/subsequent
residue with "-C" or "+C" respectively, in an entry for your modified
lysine. Otherwise, you can either build it in by hand and let the energy
minimization move it to the right location, or temporarily define a new
"combined" gly-modlys residue that will let you make a new .hdb entry
such that the new hydrogen can be specified with a intra-residue name.
