Hi All
I'm building a polymer (heterodimer) using pdb2gmx tool. I have included
in ffG53a6 the 4 building block I need (aminoacids.rtp in my own dir:
../my_ffG53a6..):
X ... A-B-A-B-A-B-A-B-A-B-A ... Y
X: starting CAP residue
A: a monomer
B: the other monomer
Y: terminal CAP residue
I have to mention that I've already done this successfully with a
gromacs version 4.0.5, but now I can't do it in gromacs 4.5.4...
I have also added the 4 new residues into the file: residuetype.dat
When I run the following line:
g_pdb2gmx -f pol35.pdb -p top -o pol35 -ff my_gromos53a6 -ter
It gives me:

Fatal error:
There is a dangling bond at at least one of the terminal ends. Select a
proper terminal entry.
For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS
website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors
I don't understand why pdb2gmx takes the 34th residue as the last
monomer when in fact it has 35... After the error I understood why
pdb2gmx complains about: ..a dangling bond...
But I do not know how to solve the problem ....I need that pdb2gmx uses
my last 35th monomer as the last one...
The reason was printed to the screen:
"Warning: Residue VBR35 in chain has different type (Other) from starting
residue TQL1 (Protein)."
Chains have to be all one type in order to be continuous. So, either all of
your buildings blocks have to be defined as Protein or all of them have to be
defined as Other.
