Dear users,
I have been trying to build la ligand topology of my ligand through the
PRODRG web server.
I have the following queries;
According to Justin's important tutorial (
http://www.bevanlab.biochem.vt.edu/Pages/Personal/justin/gmx-tutorials/complex/02_topology.html
i am lost on how to allocate equivalent charges to equivalent groups. I
have read the recommended paper but seems still i have issues in allocating
the correct charges to my groups.


You'll have to be a lot more specific with what you're dealing with and what you're doing if you want to get any useful help.

Secondly, its about how to determine which groups are encompassed by a
charge group

Someone out there help me in understanding this.

Charge groups are used in the Gromos96 force fields and typically contain 2-4 atoms such that the group has an integral charge (generally -1, 0, or 1). Figures 1, 3, 4, and 5 of our paper (dx.doi.org/10.1021/ci100335w) show how to properly assign charge groups in molecules of increasing complexity. Our work should have encompassed almost all of the most commonly encountered functional groups. Other examples for well-known molecules can be found in the .rtp file for the force field.
