This is way outside the design of antechamber. Basically, antechamber
was coded to look at small organic molecules, and you are asking it to
determine bond types (and later, atom types) for an entire protein. It's
not clear why you would want to do this: for proteins in Amber, you should
use the standard protein libraries.

So, my main question is: why do you want to do this? That is, what are you
going to use the output mol2 file for?
