Dear gromacs users,

I am carrying out solvent-free simulations of a DNA-protein complex using the 
Amber forcefield. Amber automatically assigns negative charges to the DNA. Is 
there any way to have neutral DNA? Similarly, I would like to select which Arg 
residues are protonated, however the Amber forcefield does not appear to 
support deprotonated Arg. Is there any way around this? Previously I have been 
able to assign the protonation state of all basic and acidic residues with the 
OPLS forcefield (using the interactive commands in pdb2gmx), however with DNA 
included, I figured I needed to use Amber.

Any advice on this would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Zoe Hall
