   Dear Amber users,
   I am trying to run molecular dynamics on a protein-inhibitor complex of P450
   enzyme 1A1. Oda et al (J. Comp. Chem., 2005, 818) have used quantum chemical
   calculations with five-coordinated Fe(III) mimicking the sextet spin state
   of P450s to obtain the RESP charges and force-field parameters. As the
   heme-cys residue in my P450 is the same one, will it be advisable to use the
   charges and force field derived by Oda for my MD run? or should I redo the
   quantum chemical calculations? Thanks for the advice.
   jaya.
