Dear Prasanth,

CHARMM and AMBER force fields use a (slightly) different Hamiltonian, a different 1-4 scaling factors, a different charge/vdW derivation...

In summary... mixing CHARMM with AMBER is like eating fries with "dulce de leche" ... it just doesn't work :-P

Best,

Matias Machado

Asunto: [AMBER] Membrane protein-ligand simulation - application of multiple FF - compatibility and reliability

Dear all,
I am interested in carrying out Membrane protein - ligand complex
simulations using CHARMM FF, AMBER and GAFF for lipids, protein and ligand
respectively. I would like to know if using multiple force fields has any
effect on reliability of the simulations.
As a followup question, I would also like to know your opinion on whether
this kind of setup could work in GROMACS or not.
Thank you,
-- 
Regards,
Prasanth.
