Dear Francois,

Thanks for the help. The version I'm using is III.2.

That's why I thing it's even more reasonable to use that conformation. Don't you?

Maybe the ideal would be to use some method like ONIOM..?(what you be far from my wishes...rsrsrs!)

If I understood your notation the (P"-2") means the charge on phosphate group(s) equal to -2 (not the total charge). So, I'd be grateful if you send me the following files with Hornack et al. force fields.

NAD (P"-2")
NADH (P"-2")
NADP (P"-2")
NADPH (P"-2")
FMN (P"-2")
FMNH (P"-2")

Thanks in advance.
