Neither. First, because different solvents differ in more than just the
dielectric. Second, because the peptide/protein atomic charges for Amber
have been developed for water solvation. These charges would not be the same
in different solvents.
The calculations you propose should only be used for very qualitiative
explorations.
...good luck....dac
