Dear All,

I am a newbie to GROMACS and to MD simulations.
I want to simulate and study protein in the presence of Dextran or PEG.
1. From literature and internet searches, I understand that PEG topology
file can be generated using the PRODRG server and hence protein+PEG
simulations should be possible.  But what I am worried is that, the GROMACS
forcefields are united atom models. So will I then not be able to study
hydrogen bonding in my system?
2. For Dextran, I understand from literature that CHARMM forcefield can be
used. I also understand that there are perl scripts to convert the charmm
input files into gromacs compatible versions. But can anyone tell me if the
perl script available from the GROMACS-user contribution section can handle
Dextran? It says that it accurately handles Lipids and silicates but there
is no comment about dextran or carbohydrates.

I will be grateful for any suggestions and directions.

Thank you,
Sincerely,
Vignesh
