Hello
Given that the partial charges from PRODRG are not reliable (as explained
Justin Lemkul's paper),
are AM1-BCC charges calculated with the Chimera/Amber Tools a reasonable
starting point?
Yes, those charges are a reasonable start, but will almost certainly not be
sufficient for the final topology.
In this case, do we treat all ligand atoms as one charge group?
Unless your ligand is 4 atoms or less, no. Please consult the manual regarding
charge groups, and see existing Gromos96 building blocks for suitable charge
groupings.
