Re: [AMBER] Missing Iron (Fe) DFTB3 parameters for QM/MM simulation of Enzyme

Dear Hafiz,

In case this is still relevant:

The trans3d parameters are not DFTB3 parameters. They are DFTB2 (=SCC-DFTB) parameters that have to be used in conjunction with the mio-1-1 parameters. Please try to add the Slater-Koster files to the folder with the mio-1-1 parameters, and then choose DFTB2 as method.

All the best,
Andy

For this purpose I have used DFTB3 method for QM region and I have downloaded these DFTB3 parameters (trans3d) from DFTB (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://dftb.org/parameters/download__;!!Mih3wA!T8Iet8K2itq7GtC0T3ftYX69x5RxvyDwxNAUI8x1pTI0p00VyAsFQjWduHmoC80$ ) and paste it in the AMBER directory. When I try to run QM/MM simulation, AMBER recognised DFTB3 parameters for all atoms including Iron but I am getting following error:
