Hi all,
I'd appreciate some input from you about this possibility. I need to
simulate a protein that has one post-translational modification. I found the
ForceField_PTM by the Floudas group (
http://ares.tamu.edu/FFPTM/) that
includes parameters for the modification I need (S-palmitoylcysteine), but
the derivation methodology of ForceField_PTM is based on FF03, while the
recommended Amber's primary FF is FF14SB. So, the way I see there are 2
possibilities:
1. I try and derive FF14SB-compatible parameters for this residue, or
2. I use FF14SB and use the ForceField_PTM only for this one residue.
(What could go wrong, right?)
So, I wonder if anyone here has experience in this area of combining those
force fields. How different are they? How bad would it be to combine them?
Thanks a lot!
Gustavo Seabra.
