No forcefield on whole earth is able to reproduce the pH realistically
by H+.
You just can apply pH of your system through the protonation states
of each part in your system.


Constant protonation state and constant pH are different. Gromacs does not have the capability of doing constant pH simulations since such algorithms (i.e. http://mmtsb.org/workshops/mmtsb-ctbp_workshop_2009/Tutorials/CPHMD/cphmd_tutorial.html) are not implemented. One can make an argument that comparing protonation states can be useful (I've done it), but you cannot equate constant protonation with constant pH.

That is not considered constant-pH MD.

Follow Justin's suggestion.

Cheers,

    Look for the pKa-constants of each part of your system (e.g. each
    amino-acid).
    Then you can check each protonation state and change it according to
    your
    application in the force-field.

      Dear gmx users,

    Are there some tutorials on constant PH simulations using gromacs?
    How should I state my work? Right now I have no idea on it.
