I agree with the above. Among other things, there are lots of
calculations out there that have used exactly this scheme. (I think
Michael Shirts was the first to do this, but I'm not sure.) Certainly,
if you plan to draw some conclusions about the Amber14SB force field,
this seems like the best way to proceed. (At least to me.) Since there
are only 19 amino acid sidechains, it wouldn't take very long to just do
it.
OR, check the supplementary materials in the literature. People that
have carried out these sorts of calculations are quite diligent in
providing complete details of what they have done. So there might be
some files out there. The relevent authors are probably not following
the Amber mailing list. Try an email to Michael or David Mobely.
...good luck...dac
