In CHARMM36 folder, there is a atomtypes.atp that I chose the atomtypes of formyl group ( as you see earlier) . If I don't use these, so what atom types?! I sent an email to Prof.Roux the author of this article http://www.pnas.org/content/101/1/117.abstract . He suggested me to use the parameters of formamide the charmm36.rtf file . RESI FORM 0.00 ! CH3NO formamide, adm jr. GROUP ATOM HA HGR52 0.08 ! ATOM C CG2O1 0.42 ! O Hc ATOM N NG2S2 -0.69 ! \\ / ATOM HC HGP1 0.35 ! C--N ATOM HT HGP1 0.35 ! / \ ATOM O OG2D1 -0.51 ! HA Ht
I found something similar to what I used here for my defined formyl group.Would this be useful?

But it's not clear for me that what I am supposed to check? bonds? > I don't know what I need to do. Your .rtp entry has to specify atom types. Those atom types have to make chemical sense. Then there have to be bond/angle/dihedral parameters for all the combinations you want to use. It may be that this is impossible (and pdb2gmx is having trouble, which suggests this is true), but you can't know without looking at the force field files. This is about the third time I've said to go looking for formyl atom types in atomtypes.atp. They're probably not there. Atom types for HC(O)N(H)R... are almost certainly not there, and they are what you really want, and they'd be quite different from HC(O)R formyl anyway. > If I look for the bonds/dihedrals and then don't find them, what's the next > step? Search the literature to see if anyone else has used this functional group, but probably give up and use acetyl, like everybody else does. You have to have a compelling reason to want to bother to parameterize this group, and I'd suggest you get a lot more experience first.
