Re: [gmx-users] CG (MARTINI) parameters for RNA

2010-06-02 Thread Itamar Kass

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your replay. From the paper (DNA and lipid bilayers: 
self-assembly and insertion. J. Royal Soc. Int. 5, S241-S250, 2008. ) I 
understand that the DNA CG particles where identical to the one used for 
lipids and protein, am I correct? Also, they had used elastic network to 
hold them in place (instead of Secondary Structure used in proteins).


Best,
Itamar

Hi,

The DNA parameters for use with the MARTINI forcefield are not 
publicly available to download at the moment, however they will be 
available very soon. I (or someone else from the Khalid group) will 
let the list know when and where they have been made available.


Cheers

Tom

Shalom all,

I wish to try and simulate a protein with few RNA bases attached. As I
favour speed over accuracy in this case I wish to use the MARTINI model.
I could not find RNA/DNA parameters, but noticed that on the site there
is a reference to Khalid S, Bond PJ, Holyoake J, Hawtin RW, Sansom MSP.

I wonder if someone had those parameters already implemented into the
model? It will be nice to get it nicely packed. Or maybe even better,
are there any beta parameters to RNA/DNA in a new MARTINI force field?

All the best,
Itamar
