 Hi Servaas,

Thanks for your reply. Your inforamtion is very helpful. Now I am trying to
write the topology file by myself when dealing with a small molecule. I
have know their conversion relationship, but in my case, I want to fix a few
atoms in a plane.  From the gaff.dat file , I can see the parameters on
proper dihedral but not improper dihedral. I am just wondering how
to retrival info. on improper dihedral from gaff.dat file. If you have such
experience, please let me know. I do appreciate your kind help.

best regards,

Xiangyu

 On this website is the info you need, in the FAQs there is a link to
 dowload the script to do the job.

 Hi all,

 I am using GAFF force field for Gromacs package to simulate MD of
 surfactant
 molecule. I know we can generate .top file using some simple command
 like
 pdb2gmx if we use gromos force field. I am just wondering whether I can
 do
 the similar thing when using GAFF force field. If you have any
 experience in
 GAFF+Gromacs, please give me some advice. thanks

 You might not use pdb2gmx for such task.

 Once you have generated topology in AMBER format with Antechamber in
 GAFF, you will need to use some tools like ambconv.pl or ambconv (one
 is
 Perl script and one is a C++ programme, check GROMACS' website) to
 convert those files into GROMACS format.

 There is ffamber, a port for AMBER force field to GROMACS, which
 largely
 similar to what ambconv.pl or ambconv produces. They will provide force
 field for protein and nuclei acids through pdb2gmx. With some
 hand-modifications to the files, you can combine ambconv and ffamber,
 so
 you have a solution for almost all molecules.
