[Chimera-users] [Dock-fans] cofactors in dock

[Eric Pettersen]

Yes, if you use the 1.6.1 release of Chimera, GTP is treated as a  
"standard" residue in that Chimera knows what the charges are for each  
atom without having to call antechamber to compute them (that  
computation typically fails with highly negatively charged molecules  
like GTP).
