Hi Olga,

It's not straightforward in CHARMM as well. One method is to use conjugate peak 
refinement, but this will only get you the potential energy surface, but 
there's also a force field made by Meuwly for dealing with proton transfer 
IIRC. Depending on the system size, you may want to use QM/MM (implemented in 
Gromacs) or simulate your system with a DFT-based 'on semi-empricial code.

Thnaks, Justin.
Probably CHARMM is suitable for this.

Dear gromacs users,

I want to simulate proton transfer between water and another small molecule in 
gromacs. In the end I should have the velosity of proton proton exchange. 
Please can you advice me which method is better to use for this in gromacs.
I read about umbrella sampling, but may be there is other techniques?


You can't do this with standard MD.  Bonds cannot break and re-form in a 
classical force field.  You might be able to do accomplish it with QM, however, 
but in that case you need to be looking outside of Gromacs.

Yours sincerely,
Olga
