Dear Colleagues,
Stefano Piana and DE Shaw have discussed in some of their work the
stability of salt bridges and if I recall correctly one of Stefano's
talk I heard, he also mentioned some efforts to reparameterize the ARG
and LYS sidechains taking salt bridge stability into consideration.
However, until now I did not see a modified set of parameters compatible
with the AMBER force field available. However, its possible I might have
missed something.
Is anybody aware of a new set of parameters for ARG and LYS ?
Any comments on potential issues with the current ARG and LYS parameters
in the context of salt bridges ?
Thanks for any insights
Best wishes
Vlad
