Re: [AMBER] parameter file for dUTP

Hi,

Yes that looks like the frcmod file for the di- and triphosphates, but keep
in mind you'll need a lib file as well.

I am unfamiliar with RNA force fields, so I can't say if there are any
existing parameters for dU. If there are not, you will have to make them
yourself as Dr. Case described above: merging the lib and frcmod files of
dT's base and sugar with those of the triphosphate's, then removing the
methyl.

Regards,

Zachary
