I think the Ausi ATB is a bit beter for initial topologies,but still needs some input afterwards.  They usually have less to change around needed, or beter charge sets, but tend to have problems with adding a hydrogen.  Only for 53a6 though.  Also, just loking at the ff topoloy you canput one together from scratch from what is already in gromacs, but painfull...there are a large amunt of MD's with all atom or berger lipids in a 53a6 which should work with a7 as well, and the ATB has a few constructed all or UA lipids, cholestorols on its site already done...
 
My opinion,

Hi Justin,

Thank you for you answer.
It sounds to me that using PRODRG server for the initial topology and then
correcting atom types and other parameters according to Berger lipids is
acceptable method.

What about "constructing" cholesteryl oleate molecule by "gluing" together
known cholesterol force field with oleate chain taken from POPC?

Thank you in advance,

Anton
