Thanks for your reply Justin and I cleared my doubt.
Yes I am using POPC parameters from Tielemen's website.

The parameters for them were based in part on OPLS parameters, hence the argument can be made that the OPLS-AA force field can be used in conjunction with these parameters, if one is careful to keep the force fields consistent (i.e., Chris Neale's procedure).

When I do protein simulations I can say that simulating protein with OPLS-all atomic FF by noticing protein.gro contain all atoms(N,H,C-alpha,HA1,HA2,C,O for Glycine etc...) for each amino acid residue, but I have doubt that how can you say that popc type lipids are simulating with OPLS-all atomic FF? if I open popc.gro files,couldnt able to find difference between atom types of opls-FF or gromos96 43a1 or some other FF.
