Hi users:
I have a little question. I found some L-J parameters for heme iron for the GROMOS87 FF and I want to use it in the GROMOS ff43a1 . The units as appear in the paper [biophys. J. 1995 (69) p810] A(kJ nm^ -12 mol ^-1) 4.30115e-5 and B (kJ nm^ -6 mol ^ -1) 8.886909e-3. I need to make any changes to the values there is any convertion factor??

it looks about right, but check the equations in the paper and compare to those in the manual.


Also I found other L-J parameters [J. Phys. Chem. B 2002 (106) p12031] the unit for this other are A[(kcal/mol)/A^12] 10389.5 and B[(kcal/mol)/A^6] 288.3 also appear the fallowing equation Vnb(rij) =Aijrij^ -12 - Bijrij ^ -6 with Aij(Bij) the geometric means of Ai and Aj(Bi and Bj). How I can inplemet this values to use it in the GROMOS ff43a1????
I think is is default, but check the section about combination rules in the manual.
