Justin,

Regarding the charges you mention, what do you think about RESP charges for this kind of compounds (drugs) parameterization?


We have not found any single charge calculation method that correctly reproduces the charges on Gromos96 charge groups, so further iterative refinement and validation is a must. We recommend AM1-BCC for an initial charge calculation, as it actually produces charges that are consistently more comparable to those expected in the force field.

The groups in Gromos96 are very transferable across molecules, so piecing together a novel molecule from building blocks works quite well. It's only for those unknown groups that you'd have to derive new charges.

As soon as our paper is out, I will link it from the Parameterization and PRODRG pages on the wiki, since this is a very common question.

    Just the $0.02 that I always seem to contribute in these types of
    discussions - the topology you have shown below contains some likely
    problems.  The charges (and massive charge group size) can lead to
    artifacts.  We've got a paper due out soon about the implications of
    incorrect charges, but I would advise you that this topology should
    *not* be used for production simulation.  You'd be better off
    spending the time to properly parameterize the molecule rather than
    run a bunch of simulations and get questionable (at best) or wrong
    (at worst) results.

           Hey, Olga -

            > Also please can you tell me where can I get "ffgmx.itp" file?

           /$gromacs_folder/share/gromacs/top/ffgmx.itp as well as all other
           standard topology files are there.

           By trying to run md I am getting an error: Fatal error:
            > moleculetype UNK is redefined

           Please post you top and itp files here. Looks like you have 2
        creatine
           molecules in your topology right now.

           Good luck!

           Vitaly
