Hey,
The problem comes from the special linkage between PGL and whatever the
subsequent amino acid is - the amide is formed through the side chain. As
such, you will need to specify a special bond in specbond.dat before this
connectivity will be recognized. If this is successful, then the PHE should
no longer be recognized as a terminal residue and thus will not receive any
additional protonation.
That's not correct. Pyroglutamic acid is basically a proline with an
oxy group due to formation of an intra-residue ester bond. There's no
bond between the side chain and the next amino acid.
Oops, indeed Tsjerk is quite right. I thought about that far too quickly (I
think my brain somehow jumped to the glutathione structure for some unknown
reason...)
Defining appropriate connectivity is indeed the problem, but not how I described
it. Apologies for the error, and thanks Tsjerk for catching me on it.
