Hi,

As far as I know, Zn parameters have been included in parm99.dat and
parm99EP.dat. If you go to $AMBERHOME/dat/leap/parm, 'grep -iw zn
parm*.dat" and you will see Zn^2+ van der waals parameters are there.
You'll have to decide the atomic charges suitable for your system. You
may want to check out the literature for MD simulations of zinc
containing proteins.
