Hi GMX'ers- specially Mark Abraham, At the GROMACS compiled with MOPAC 7.0, I tried to simulate my drug, using the QM/MM, at two *.itp files: (a) At the first I put the CHELPG charge fitting. (b) At the second itp file, I put zero charge since all the quantical or semi-empirical methods compute the charge calculate (in principle, the pontual charge at the quantical method is not necessary) When I did the rdf calculate (i.e: (polar oxigen of my drug)-(water oxigen))as expected in (a) we have the first (reffered to hydrogen bonds), the second, three,... solvation layers while in (b) there are no the first solvatation . The questions are: Is the pontual charge necessary at *.itp file when we have quantical atoms- exactly knowing that quantical method, compute the charges? How "hybrid GMX" interprets the atomic charges? Does GMX calculate the atomic charges or we nedded to put it "by our hand"? Kind regards, Samuel Pita --------------------- "Do not wear yourself out to get rich;do not trust your own cleverness.
