Yes this is possible. You need to create necessary parameters and load it
to leap in order to simulate these kind of systems. People use neutral
gold atoms on the gold surface with vdw parameters, which prevent the gold
atoms to fall apart. You will also need the necessary parameters for
linker that attaches the nucleic acids to the gold surface.
