AMBER Archive (2007)Subject: Re: AMBER: antechamber fails with large molecules
From: Junmei Wang (junmwang_at_yahoo.com)
Personally I don't think there is a good approach to get good charges (such as HF/6-31G* RESP). AM1BCC may be a good candidate. The problem is that antechamber may not handle such large molecules well. In amber10, I have improved the code a little bit to handle large molecules much better, in a long run I also plan to develop a even simpler, but more reliable charges (compared to am1-bcc) for arbitrary organic molecules. This method will be available in amber11.

You may remeber that I tried unsuccessfully to get the partial charges with
Antechamber in Amber9 for a 500-atoms non-repetitive molecule. Prof Case, and
others, suggested, however, that, even if calculated, the partial charges would
be unreliable for such a large residue.
Is the new code intended to solve this question too?
At any event, do you plan to make the new code available? An when? I have
frequently problems of large ligands.
Thanks
