Dear Gromacs users,

 

I have successfully installed Amber FF in Gromacs according to the
instruction by the Pande Group (http://folding.stanford.edu/ffamber/).

I ran a demo successfully and enjoyed the speed of Gromacs.

My questions are:

[Question 1] The topology file produced by pdb2gmx with Amber FF
(ffamber03, for example) looked different from what we used to obtain with
ffG43a1.

No force constants were assigned in [ bonds ], [ angles ], [ dihedrals ],
etc.

[Question 2] In the RTP file of Amber FF, again no force constants were
assigned in [ bonds ], [ dihedrals ], etc., and [ angles ] was missing.

Is it what it’s supposed to be?

Here is a sample rtp entry of ffamber03.rtp.

Any comments would be appreciated.
