Dear Sir,
I have question about the hydrogen atom name after building the all-atom model. After building the all-atom model, the hydrogen name "HA" means hydrogen bonded to C-alpha, but GLY has two HA, one is 1HA, the other is 2HA. Which one is correponding to the sidechain in other residue types? I checked several GLY in my model, I find always it is 2HA that is corresponding to the side chain of other residue type. Is this the standard criteria, or just modeller's choice?
Thank you very much!

Modeller uses IUPAC names for the atoms. It is indeed 2HA which corresponds to the side chain; see modlib/top.lib.
