Actually what you need is a model physics (i.e. force field) that is 
known to be able to model such a system. GROMACS is likely to be able to 
implement it, but the standard biochemistry force fields are unlikely to 
be suitable. Somebody here might know the answer to your question, but 
probably you should be searching literature to see what has already been 
done.
