You can use the R.E.D. Tools or R.E.D. Server to generate your FF
library for heme since R.E.D. handles chemical elements up to Bromine.
May be the R.E.D. Tools is even the best bet in a first approach...
For heme, you need to know which QM theory level you are going to use.
Then, you need to know how to build a molecular fragment so that you
can include your heme in your protein.
Finally, be prepared to run many time-consuming QM jobs.
You should find many pieces of information by starting from the
tutorials . q4md-forcefieldtools.org
regards, Francois
