[AMBER] amino-cyclopropyl parameters

Hi All,


I have a ligand containing a cyclopropyl substituted with an amine group and I would like to simulate its dynamic behavior inside a protein.

But the parameters I get from the usual procedure antechamber + parmck result in a distorted molecule. Here in attachment the minimal example as an initial molecule (ligand.mol2) with AM1-BCC charges, the ligand.frcmod produced by the command:


parmchk2 -i ligand.mol2 -f mol2 -o ligand.frcmod -s 2


(from Ambertools17)


I've also tried with parmchk (instead of parmchk2) and gaff (instead of gaff2) without improvement. The "leap" commands to produce the system and the parameters and the coordinates for the system (system_init.prm and system_init.crd). The md.in for the simulation settings and the trajectory system_md.cdf obtained with the command:


sander -O -i md.in -o md.out -p system_init.prm -c system_init.crd -r system_md.rst -x system_md.cdf


In the simulation is clear that the angle of the C-C-N (carbons of the cycle and the nitrogen) goes distorted and I understand I have to insert new parameters for such angle into the ligand.frcmod file. I guess I have to generate those values manually, how should I do that? I've tried to check but I couldn't find proper information about the procedure.


Thanks in advance,

Loris
