Hello Alex,
I tried the 2nd safe option. As .prmcrd couldn't load automatically. so I
just opened .prmtop file alongwith the solvated pdb file generated in last
step on tleap. Then chose "protein and noh" option and the resulting
structure saved with option "save co-ordinates".
But when I checked with another visualization software, it seems that only
protein is saved without ligand. What may be the problem or mistake I made?
I tried it several times, but no success.
Look forward to hear from you!
Sincerely,
Y.
