Hi all,
Thanks for the response.

I used OPLS-AA/L force field for POPC and Protein
I calculated  the sigma and epsilon values as the way Mr.Justin mentioned in
yesterday reply , the values I got are
 ;name   name   charge     mass   charge   ptype    sigma           epsilon
  LO      LO         1        15.9994   0.000      A    0.295999914
0.878694594 ;carbonyl O, OPLS
  LOM   LOM      1        15.9994   0.000      A     0.295999914
0.878694594 ;carboxyl O, OPLS
  LNL    LNL        1        14.0067   0.000     A     3.35300e-03
3.95100e-06 ;Nitrogen, OPLS
  is it correct?

 Then in First step of Chris procedure(web link quoted below), suggested
that add atom type H from opls_369 to match H expected by pope.itp

 In archives this type of problem posted for pope type of lipids
  opls_369   H    1   1.008  0.400     A     0.0000e+00   0.0000e+00 (for
pope)
 Im using POPC type of lipid
 I want to ask two things
1.  How to modify H atom type in popc.itp file

2. Mr. Chris mentioned that Parameters require a double pairs section,  how
can I mention?

Pls give me detail explanation
all comments will be appreciated
Thanks in advance


>Yes, the LO LO in atom type should be as Justin has mentioned.
>Sudheer, please note that the original post that you quote below actually
includes an example for LO LO
  > "LO       LO     1    15.9994      0.000       A    2.96000e-01
8.87864e-01"

>Also note that similar information is available in that post for pairtypes.
>Also note that these parameters require a double pairs section. Please do a
search for my posts on this method and read them carefully.

Chris.
