[gmx-users] OPLS-AA topologies for ATP

Well I would suggest you should do some very careful testing to validate 
the combination of CHARMM charges and one dihedral with the rest of the 
parameters from OPLS. It is not very common (or generally wise) to mix 
and match parameters from different forcefields, see:
 
http://www.gromacs.org/index.php?title=Documentation/How-tos/Parameterization

I would also say that you should also take care with the OPLS-AA DNA 
parameters as these have not been substantially tested/used and so you 
should double check the atom types for yourself.

On the specific topic of ATP for OPLS-AA/L I have performed simulations 
using the AMBER ATP parameters in OPLS-AA/L (with no changes for 
anything such as the different combination rules) and have found these 
parameters perform just as well as with the AMBER forcefields. There 
will be a section about this (showing the results from some of the tests 
I performed) in a paper I am currently writing.

The AMBER ATP parameters can be found at:

http://www.pharmacy.manchester.ac.uk/bryce/amber#cof

However, I would also ask is there a specific reason you wish to use 
OPLS-AA/L? If not then it is probably easier to use one of the AMBER 
forcefields with these parameters as you do not need to do any testing 
(or wait for me to publish my work!)

Cheers
