[gmx-users] special molecule

[Dongsheng Zhang]

Sear Mark,

Since PRODRG server only generates a itp file by using gromos type force
field, do I have to use gromos force field for my whole protein-ligand
system if my ligand force field parameters are got from PRODRG? In
another word, can I mix two different force field (one for protein, one
for ligand) in one system? Thanks!


Best Wishes!

Dongsheng
