Dear Shuntaro:

If you're using PME then there is no need to have unit charge in charge groups. I can't comment on any other errors that may or may not be in that topology as I have never simulated ATP. Also, if you're not using PME, then I can not advise you if it is ok to have non-integer charge groups. Can you provide a reference for the idea that the charge groups must have integer charge? Can you find the original reference for the G53a6 ATP parameters?

Chris.

Dear gmxusers,

I am going to carry out an MD simulation using G53a6 FF, whose system contains some ATP molecules. In order to know whether the calculation is possible or not, I looked for a topology of ATP in ffG53a6.rtp. Although the topology exists, each total charge of charge group 9, 10 and 11 is not a whole number (-0.925,?-0.925 and -1.15 respectively). It seems to be wrong.

My questions are as follows:
1) How can I fix them, otherwise can I get the appropriate topology.
2) There are not only ATP but many residues which are not listed in the original paper of G53a5/6 ?23 (13) 1656-1676, Journal of Computational Chemistry?. How were these parameters derived??Is it consistent with the method described in the paper, i.e. are charges fitted to reproduce the corresponding experimental value?

I really appreciate all of replies.

Best regards,
Shuntaro.
