Hi there,

I am trying to run Flexpepdock for several peptides which have Cterm_amide group. I checked the ATOM TYPES for NH2 which are also correct but while reading pdb it always gives warning:

core.chemical.Patch: [ WARNING ] Patch MethylatedCtermProteinFull implies it can apply to residue type TYR:Cterm_amidation, but actually applying it fails.
core.chemical.Patch: [ WARNING ]    You may want to check your patch definitions.
core.chemical.Patch: [ WARNING ] Patch DimethylatedCtermProteinFull implies it can apply to residue type TYR:Cterm_amidation, but actually applying it fails.
core.chemical.Patch: [ WARNING ]    You may want to check your patch definitions.

Although, the output pdb still contains Cterm_amide group but the residue is changed to NON_CANONICAL residue and ATOM name to HETATM as below:

HETATM  195  NT  TYR B 306       9.915  21.766 -48.540  1.00  0.00            N  
HETATM  206 1HN  TYR B 306       9.068  21.701 -49.067  1.00  0.00          H  
HETATM  207 2HN  TYR B 306      10.780  21.900 -49.024  1.00  0.00         H

 I want to know what this warning is about and if I should ignore it??

Beside N-terminal cap, my peptide sequence have at different amino-acid positions additional functional groups added, such as methylation, acetylation. Do I need to generate additional paramter files for those residues like mentioned in non-canonical residue papers?

Looking forward for your expert opinion

Mustafa

Hi,

If the modification is present in the output, then the run itself should be fine.

As for the other PTMs: most of the usual PTMs have a patch file already(I personally used phosphorylation and lysine acetylation without a problem). You can look up if any of them is missing, and create one based on their parent residue.
