[gmx-users] OPLS-FF

[sudheer babu]

Hi all,
My protein contain some missing residues , so I rebuilt missing residues,
although gap is there between helices, my idea is when do minimisation these
gap should disappear. Later trying to use pdb2gmx with OPLS/aa-L FF for
generating gro file for two systems containing protonated and another one is
unprotonated. For protonation i used command in this way . while
unprotonation didn't mention those aminoacid residues.
pdb2gmx -f protin.pdb -his -asp -glu -o prot_H.gro -p pro_H.top -i pro_H.itp
,
grompp  -f  .mdp -c  .gro -p  .top  -o  out.tpr
mdrun -v -deffnm out
For both systems EM running fine, but when I opened in VMD, unprotonation
protein helices came close means no gap. But in case of protonation it
doesn't happened still gap is there between helices actually it shouldn't
appear after minimisation.
I tried another FF - ff43a1 result gap is disappearing for both systems.
If use OPLS any options we have to mention or if we want to use OPLS -ff how
to protonate the residues
Any comments will be appreciated
Thanks in advance
