Thanks but I already checked the literature. What I want to do is, to be able to trace down the parameters in the nonbonded file like it can be done for any version of gromos. There are slight changes among different force fields and I'd like to be able to find that. When I find where it reads spc/e parameters for c27, i want to play with the parameters that's why i am asking the file read.

Anything that's not found in spce.itp is looked up from ffbonded.itp or ffnonbonded.itp. I can't think of a single case where the charges in ffnonbonded.itp are used, so there's probably no reason to expect them to be correct. You should satisfy yourself that GROMACS is implementing the correct form of SPC/E found in the primary literature. However, since CHARMM was not parameterized with SPC/E, there probably is no particular correct form to use.

Thanks,

        Dear all,

        I was trying to see the LJ parameters for SPC/E water in
        Charmm27.ff implementation in Gromacs. In the ffnonbonded.itp
        file i can see parameters for TIP3P, TIP4P, SPC but not for
        SPC/E. Does SPC/E use the same parameters with SPC? (but the
        charges listed in the ffnonbonded.itp is different than the
        ones listed in spce.itp)


    Why not check out the primary literature? Search GROMACS manual
    for SPC, follow the reference link for the relevant citation.
