Mark,

I've mistaken

I need to invert impropers for DIHEDRAL for Calpha atom. By this way I want to change L form to D form for Gromos ff. Does this correct ?

 [ dihedrals ]
;  ai    aj    ak    al   gromos type
  -CA    -C     N    CA     gd_14
   -C     N    CA     C     gd_39
    N    CA    CB    CG     gd_34
    N    CA     C    +N     gd_40
   CA    CB    CG   CD1     gd_34

I've no idea what any of the above was intended to mean. I'll repeat myself again, there's nothing about the improper dihedrals that enforces a particular chirality. Proper dihedrals also don't care about chirality. Chirality is set in the starting configuration, and merely preserved by the force field.



So I think that I need to make corrections in that gd_n files. But in what exactly and where in manual could I read about that parametrisation ?

See the #defines in ffbonded.itp. The implementation of the GROMOS force fields are a bit idiosyncratic this way.

It could be cool that in that section such information present :)

    First, identify that there's anything to invert. Look at the
    #define lines for gi_1 and gi_2 and the manual sections for
    impropers. There's nothing associated with any handedness. The
    impropers for chirality prevent inversion, rather than enforcing a
    particular chirality. You can test this yourself. Make a .tpr of
    an L-amino acid and .gro files of each chirality, and then use
    mdrun -rerun Lconfiguration.gro -s Lconfiguration and compare with
    mdrun -rerun Rconfiguration.gro -s Lconfiguration.
