Thanks Mark for the response.

I have contacted the amber mailing list too and I have got the parameters for GDP in AMBER94 forcefield. But I would need the parameters in AMBER03 forcefield, so that I can use them while running simulations in gromacs. So, can I use the same parameters of AMBER94 in AMBER03 too?

Probably not, but you should go and read the papers in which the development of each was described and make your own judgement. The availability of parameters can be a sound reason for the choice of force field.

    Surely antechamber will accept whatever coordinate file you provide to
    it, and the AMBER mailing list is the place to make inquiries about it
    (after checking the documentation).

    Don't stress too much about the charges - those that are suitable
    in the
    bound and unbound form will normally be different, and current methods
    can't access the former.
