Dear all,

I would like to perform MD simulations on a molecule that contains a carbon 
chain with a sulfonyl (R-SO2-R) group in between. When looking at the available 
atomtypes for ffgmx I didnt find a sulfate S. Only sulfur (S) and DMSO sulphur 
atomtypes are available. In literature I did find GROMACS simulations performed 
on systems with a sulfate group but all of them used the standard Sulfur 
atomtype.

So my question; Would it be reasonable to use the sulfur atomtype for a 
sulfonyl group R-SO2-R? (as done previously in literature) If not, is there a 
sulfate atomtype available for ffgmx or would you recommend me to use another 
force field such as CHARMM for this system?

Kind regards,
 Michiel
