Dear all, I found a paper where they have updated the c36 forcefield to include cholesterol parameters ( to which I should be able to modify by adding an oleate chain to get my cholesteryl oleate moiety) :
http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/jp207925m and I found this link: http://lists.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2010-October/054515.html and further obtained the file: toppar_all36_lipid_cholesterol.str file. Should I try converting *.str file to an itp file that is compatible with gromacs or can I add this as a new molecule to the existing lipids.rtp in the charmm36.ff folder? Which would be a cleaner way of doing it? I am unable to decide in this regard. Kindly provide me your valuable suggestions. Thank you in advance. Yours sincerely, Revathi.S M.S.
