Dear GMX Users,

I am trying to simulate a protein with a cysteine sulfenic acid (Cys-SOH).
I notice that both AMBER and GROMOS force field should have the parameters
for residues having post-translational modifications :
http://selene.princeton.edu/FFPTM/
http://vienna-ptm.univie.ac.at/

PTM-GROMOS can be downloaded and used in GROMACS without problems. However,
looks like the PTM-AMBER force field can only be used in AMBER package, it
it correct?  For some historical reasons, I am looking for the possibility
to consistently use AMBER force field. I was wondering whether PTM-AMBER is
ready yet for GROMACS?

If this is not ready, are there any other options that I have (besides
PTM-GROMOS) in order to simulate cysteine sulfenic acid?

Thank you very much!

Best regards,

Jianqing
