Have you read the ATB paper? Does it give you confidence in the results? How might you evaluate whether or not the topology produces reasonable dynamics? All of these are things to consider, particularly the last one. No one ever said derivation of parameters was easy, and this is precisely why.

Hi Justin thank you,


The ATB server link for Biotin are as follow..
http://compbio.biosci.uq.edu.au/atb/download.py?molid=5783
compbio.biosci.uq.edu.au/atb/download.py?molid=2212

Now should I need to do QM calculations, free energy simulations, and
empirical refinement.
What is your opinion on  these topics.


Is there any free available software for these work???( I never did any QM
calclation, Sorry for these basic Question).

With Best Wishes and Regards,
Rama David.

Hi Gromacs Friends,

                      I want to do the simulation of system containing the
biotin.
I know that the charge calculated by prodrg is not good.
I want to use the GROMOS96 53a6 force field  or OPLS force field.
( 1st choice is GROMOS second choice is OPLS)

Please would you tell me how to get topologies for biotin with correct
charge.


Most molecules in the Gromos force fields can be reasonably built from
the charge group building blocks.  For biotin, the only trick is the
thioether functional group, but perhaps there are parameters for that.  I
know there has been a lot of recent work expanding the Gromos force fields,
so someone may have done that already.

If suitable parameters aren't available, you need to read the primary
literature for the parameter set you're using and derive parameters in a
suitable way, which for Gromos would typically involve some preliminary QM
calculations, free energy simulations, and empirical refinement.  The ATB
server is also a possibility; it performs much better than PRODRG, but
anything you get from an automated server should be validated first before
being used in any simulation you care about.
