Thank you,

Is it really necessary for me to use Charmm FF for all atom calculations on lipids?

You can use whatever model you want, provided it's valid. Just so happens that most people who use all-atom models of lipids use CHARMM.

The reason I am asking this is because it will require me to create gromacs compatible FF files of the Charmm FF . I did find two perl scripts which can do probably handle that but i am wondering if the compatible FF are already up on gromacs website somewhere.


No one ever said life was easy :) CHARMM support is under development, you can get the source via the git repositories, but I don't know its current status.

    Hi,
    You can find some configurations here:

    And I think you can use Charmm FF.

    Subject: [gmx-users] question about all atoms lipid molecule
    structure and force field


    Dear all,

    I have been trying to search for an all atom DPPC sructure
    (including the missing Hydrogens of long chain hydrocarbons) and
    then do an all atoms md simulation on it. I havent yet found any
    such structure or any force field that could be used for it on the
    internet. Is anybody familiar with any such work ?

    Is there any all atom model for hydrocarbons which is incorporated
    in Gromacs? I am not 100 % sure about it.

    I want to do this to parametrize another force field which
    essentially uses all atom model.

    Thank you,
    Amit
