Hi,
I have recently done two simulations on a protein at high temperature
near its melting temperature. At the beginning I used CHARMM forcefield,
and then OPLSAA to double check the results. There are some differences
in the structures between the forcefield used. I know different
forcefields can give different results. All parameters in the
simulations were the same except the forcefield. Is there anyway I can
tell which forcefield gives more reliable results?

Thanks for the insights,

Simon

You might want to check

where we compare a number of FFs to NMR data.
