Hi all,
I'm resending this to the mailing list because nobody responded the
first time. My apologies for doing so, but I think enough people are
using GAFF that we should probably figure out how to fix the gaff.dat
parameter files currently being distributed.
Thanks,
John

Subject: Duplicate entries with different parameters in gaff.dat from
AmberTools 1.2
To: amber.scripps.edu
Hi all,
I just noticed that the copy of gaff.dat (the GAFF parameter
definition file) appearing in AmberTools 1.2 contains repeated
entries, but with these entries specifying different parameters. For
example, in the bond section:
cd-cd 418.3 1.429 SOURCE1 740 0.0058 0.0069
cd-cd 504.0 1.371 SOURCE3 523 same as cc-cd
A complete list of duplicate lines is attached below. This occurs
both in amber10/dat/leap/parm/gaff.dat and
amber10/dat/leap/gleap/gaff.dat.
Can anyone comment on which entry (the first or second) is correct,
and which entry LEaP would have been using (first or second)?
This issue appears to have been dealt with via a bugfix in the AMBER8 release:
http://ambermd.org/bugfixes/8.0/bugfix.28
but the buggy file (if this is indeed unintended) appears to have
crept back into the release versions somewhere along the line.
Applying this patch appears to fix the problems, but some patches are
rejected (also attached below).
This was also mentioned on the mail reflector as recently as June of this year:
http://archive.ambermd.org/200806/0289.html
but it appears to remain unrectified in the AmberTools 1.2
distribution put out in July.
Thanks go out to D. E. Shaw Research guys on this: I've been working
on AmberTools GAFF -> Desmond conversion scripts, and their forcefield
conversion tools detected and enumerated the duplicate entries in
gaff.dat.
Thanks!
John
