I can't seem to get this to work out so I think I'm giving up and asking for some big help. I've been trying to generate a poly(gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate) with 5 and 10 repeat units but nothing seems to work out. Is there anyone that would be generate a pdb file that would actually work with pdb2gmx so I could see the proper formatting of the file?


Everyone here has their own stack of to-do's :) And besides, it's always better to learn how to solve a problem, is it not? If formatting is a problem, see the following:

http://www.wwpdb.org/docs.html

What exactly is the error message you're getting from pdb2gmx? You will likely get useful help if you can demonstrate what you are doing to troubleshoot your own problem, as I suggested here:

If you've tried PRODRG, as you said in that message, I really don't know what the problem with the PDB file would be - every structure I've obtained from the server has had proper formatting. You can verify that for yourself at the first link I posted.

You can also draw structures using xleap (now part of the *free* AmberTools). There should be absolutely no problem with the formatting of those files, we've been using them in our lab for years without ever once encountering a formatting issue.

I really appreciate your help, thank you :)
