Subject: AMBER: how to add hydrogen molecules in the protein

Hi, all,

Thanks for your replies and now i know how to select those uncorrect
residues.

Now I have another question, I want to add a few hydrogen molecules into my
protein, I want to use the hydrogen model of Hunter et al., which is a three
point molecule with two atoms and a dummy placed at their midpoint, and the
charges for the two hydrogen atoms are 0.475 while it is -0.95 for the
dummy. Anyone can tell me how to do that? also if I want to add for example
100 hydrogen molecules, do i need to use the add command for 100 times?

Best regards,
Rachel
