     43A1-S3.tar.gz
    The 43A1-S3 forcefield is an improved forcefield suited for molecular dynamics simulations of lipid bilayers systems. The forcefield has been parameterized in a progressive way, based on the reproduction of molecular volumes and heats of vaporization of small chemical species modelled for the fragments of lipids. This parameter set is validated by MD simulations that replicate experimental structures of bilayers including X-ray form factors, order parameters (J. Phys. Chem. B, 2009, 113, 2748–2763).

    In addition to AMBER99SB-ILDN, this force field includes improved Pro and Hyp parameters, which were derived from fittings of experimental correlation times and NMR J-couplings. The motional frequency of the Pro ring interconverson predicted by standard AMBER99SB is ~6 times faster than the experimental value, while the current force field reproduces experiment accurately. See Proteins 2014 82 195 for further details.

     ffG43a1p.tar.gz
    G43a1 modified to contain SEP (phosphoserine), TPO (phosphothreonine), and PTR (phosphotyrosine) (all PO4^{2-} forms), and SEPH, TPOH, PTRH (PO4H^{-} forms). The charges and vdw parameters come from Hansson, Nordlund and Aqvist jmb 265 118-27 1997. They worked mostly with gromos 87 but I generally use gromos 96 so I\'ve made the files in that format (there seem to be no differences in the amino acid charges between 87 and 96). Hansson et al don\'t report bond angle or dihedral parameters, and I don\'t know how to do QM calculations, so I\'ve used the standard forms from the *bon.itp file. For the dihedrals, I\'ve used the 3-fold gd_11. Because of their symmetry, the PO4^{2-} forms at least cannot have the 2-fold + 3-fold symmetry used in the gmx DNA bases. The OP-X LJ-14 parameters are the same as for OA. I\'ve checked that I can build simple 1-molecule topologies and tprs for the PO4H forms, and for the PO4 forms have done 100 ps solvated MD of the isolated am acs and the am acs in proteins (1f1w, 1fu0, 1qmz). I\'ve checked water-phosphate rdfs and parameters in gmxdumped tprs. Uploaded 16:08 May 15, 2002 by Graham Smith (smithgr@cancer.org.uk)

Results you can found at: http://rnp-group.genebee.msu.su/3d/oplsa_ff.html. At that page you can find forcefield with another charges, but this one is not tested. Recently we added 3` and 5` end residues. Scripts that fix pdb to make them compatible with pdb2gmx are here: fixpdb_dna and fixpdb_rna This scripts also works with NA-protein complexes.

     gromos43a1p-4.5.1.tgz
    Force field files for Gromos96 43a1p, re-formatted to be compatible with newer versions of Gromacs (4.0 and beyond). This particular archive organizes the files such that they are compatible with version 4.5.x. Please note that the parameters are unmodified relative to what was contributed by Graham Smith. I take no credit for these parameters; I just made the files compatible with the current version of Gromacs. This version includes files that were missing in the previous tarball.

     gromos56a6_withAZE_support.zip
    This is a modified GROMOS 53a6 forcefield that supports non-natural Aze (azetidine-2-carboxylic acid) amino acid that is similar to Proline, except that it has a 4-atom instead of a 5-atom ring. Aze occurs naturally in plants and was shown to have toxic effects in mammalian cells possibly due to its hability to be misincorporated into growing polypeptide chains instead of Proline. We found that Aze has greater propensity to adopt a cis-peptide bond conformation compared to Proline . To install this modified Gromos56a6 forcefield simply unzip the archive in the forcefield folder. Reference: Bessonov K, Vassall KA, Harauz G.
