Hi Olga, It's not straightforward in CHARMM as well. One method is to use conjugate peak refinement, but this will only get you the potential energy surface, but there's also a force field made by Meuwly for dealing with proton transfer IIRC. Depending on the system size, you may want to use QM/MM (implemented in Gromacs) or simulate your system with a DFT-based 'on semi-empricial code.

Probably CHARMM is suitable for this. 2010/12/2 Justin A.

In the end I should have the velosity of proton proton exchange. Please can you advice me which method is better to use for this in gromacs. I read about umbrella sampling, but may be there is other techniques? You can't do this with standard MD. Bonds cannot break and re-form in a classical force field. You might be able to do accomplish it with QM, however, but in that case you need to be looking outside of Gromacs. -Justin Yours sincerely, Olga -- ======================================== Justin A.
