Dear Amber-users,

I want to perform a REMD simulation with GB-OBC implicit solvent model. In
the following papers it is mentioned that saltbridges are overstabilized in
GB-OBC model. I want to reduce the GB radius for hydrogen atoms involved in
saltbridges to 1.1 Ang as mentioned in the following papers. I am not clear
where exactly I need to make the changes to satisfy the criteria.

Your help will be highly appreciated.

Model. J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2006, 2, 115−127.

684.
