Dear Justin,

Thanks this paper is quite explained and requires much detailed study
(sorry am escaping!)
As I have these two params missing, is there any tool that can help me in
this regard or may be some approximation method I may use?


It is very hard to assign dihedrals based on approximations, and they are generally not very transferable. Bonds and angles are easier, but dihedrals are quite complex and the types and charges on atoms i and l have a significant impact on the parameters. Shortcuts here will probably lead to a bad topology. Parameterization is a hard road that takes a lot of time, even for bonded terms that you think may be simple.

thanks

Dear All,

I am working on some molecule and I have defined atom types with OPLSaa
and
all atom types really exist in oplsaa and well chosen so no approximation
in choosing atom types. During grompp, I found there are dihedral param
missing. e.g.
N CT CT NT
N CT CT N3

Is there any 'good' way of finding/assuming dihedral params for this? or I
should choose values of some nearby atom types?


The OPLS dihedral fitting strategy is exceptionally well explained in the
Kaminski 2001 paper (reference in Gromacs manual).
