Hi,

I know this issue has been discussed in some form before, but hough may be I resurface it again. Is it possible to transfer a UFF forcefield to a GROMACS forcefield with help of a script? UFF force-field cannot be used in GROMACS as per my understanding, and I renamed the FF types of an UFF based small peptide to GROMACS by hand, but I am afraid this will take for ever in longer systems. Also if someone can highlight upon what is the basic difference in UFF type forcefields and GROMACS (parameter or potential function-wise) that would be great.

If *you* can specify which potential forms are used in UFF it is straightforward to determine whether you can use it with GROMACS. As long as it consists of pair potentials for the nonbondeds, it should work fine.


Thanks so much for your help.

regards,
Subhashis
