Hi users:
How I can convert a topology generated by PRODRG topology generation server to
a gromos topology??? or I cant use it with the G43a1 GROMOS96 43a1
Forcefield????
There is no automatic way to do that. You'll have to assign Gromos atom
types (which are similar to those from ProDrg, but *not* identical!) and
bonded types (for bonds, angles, dihdedrals and impropers). You may have
to check (or add) the exclusions also.
You could use my 'Topology Tools' (see contributions section) to make
life easier. After you assign atom types, you use nr2nametop to change
all atom numbers into labels that include the atom names and types.
Then, e.g., bonds in your itp file will look like:
[bonds]
CA(CH3) C(C) <parameters>
C(C) O(O) <parameters>
Then, using the comments in the ffG43a1bon.itp file, like:
#define gb_4 0.1230 1.6600e+07
; C - O 1200
you can easily guess to assign gb_4 to the second bond. And, yes, it
would be possible to automate this to some extent, but it woulc be
dangerous, too. Assigning bonded interactions like this is really
guesswork, you will have a good starting point for a molecular topology,
but (important and/or crucial) details may be horribly wrong.
In practice, it usually works very well, though...
