DGO was also added to residuetypes.dat. hdb file was also updated, as was dna.rtp within amber99sb.ff.

The problem is not a simple missing bond, as when the structure goes through pdb2gmx, the new nucleotide appears on the other side of the pbc, in a straight line (i.e. without form).


As in, the atoms of DGO are visually a straight line? That would be a consequence of an incorrectly-formatted input file. If you're using a .pdb file, it's fixed-format, so any incorrect spacing will screw up the coordinates.

To clarify, are you missing a bond, as your first message would imply? I can see how you might be missing bonds; your residue definition doesn't specify a bond to the next nucleotide (i.e. "O3' +P"), although if it's a 3' ending nucleotide, this wouldn't apply. If it's an internal residue, you may also be missing necessary dihedral definitions as well.
