Dear Raquel,

just to know which residues are responsible for the H-bonds observed,
you should go to mouse option in VMD and click label atom. Then pick on
the atom making the bond, and it will give you the atom and the residue
belonging to.
I f you are new user with VMD this link will be useful for you, I am new
user also:

good luck, andres...
