[gmx-users] Md with a ligand containing a P-F bond?

[Daan van Aalten]

Hi Marc-Michael

The trick would be to submit to PRODRG a copy of your PDB file where you
have substituted the fluorine on the phosphorus with something else (say a
carbon). Then, when you have your GROMACS topology, you edit the topology
to change
a) the carbon back to fluorine
b) change the P-C to a P-F bond length
c) (perhaps) change the C/F-P-X bond angle as well
d) edit the partial charges

cheers

Daan
