dear all,

in the force field file for residue types ffG53a6.rtp, one of the two potentials for the so-called "beta" dihedral angle for the nucleic acid backbone atoms P-O5'-C5'-C4' is missing.

this dihedral potential term is indicated in the article published with the GROMOS force field 45A4 by Soares et al. 2005 in the Journal of Computational Chemistry Vol. 26, No.7, pp. 725-737. the parameter set 45A4 is dedicated to nucleic acids, and if i see this correctly, it was incorporated into the 53A6 force field without further changes.

therefore i suppose this potential was forgotten and should be included in the force field.

best regards,
daniela
