Hi,
Related to the Zn-parameters; where can I find the reference (author, 
journal, year) to the sigma and epsilon (1.95998e-01  5.23000e-02) 
parameters that I find in /gromacs/top/amber99sb.ff/ffnonbonded.itp for [ 
atomtypes ] Zn.

I would like to use amber99sb force field in my Gromacs simulation of a Zn-
containing protein.

Best regards,
Emma
