Hi Anindita, I was sort of afraid you might be dealing with glycosphingolipids. The Gromos force fields do not have properly behaving models for sphingolipids yet. I'm not sure whether other force fields do much better. There's some serious parameterization to do here. If you have experimenal data or can get experimental data for the behaviour using ester lipid analogues, you could do simulations with those, which offer better behaviour in silico.
