We have tested virtual sites with CHARMM36 lipids; straightforward usage
gives too ordered membranes. We have created custom virtual sites
construction for lipid hydrogens and used them for pure membranes as well
as for membrane proteins, and the differences between membrane properties
with virtual sites and without are usually minor (but still noticeable).
The parameters can be found here http://memphys.dk/node/71 and the paper

Dear Users,
I am simulating a membrane protein with charmm ff with a 2fs time step.
How the results will be affected if I use a 5fs time step by using -vsite
hydrogen option in pdb2gmx? Do my results loose their accuracy if I use
this option?
Well, it's easy to test. The membrane properties that are expected to be
observed are very easy to quantify. We didn't test our CHARMM36 port with
virtual sites at all, so we cannot recommend such usage. Test thoroughly
before
doing any real production work. Membranes are extremely sensitive to
alteration.

Hello GROMACS Users,
This is a problem I am facing for the first time. Kindly guide be to the
best options.
I have a protein which has two large domains connected by a flexible
linker
peptide (~10 aa). The two domains seem to interact with each other and
have
been crystallized in three different conformations. I want to calculate
the
change in binding energy of the two domains wrt change in their relative
position, i.e. keeping position of one domain constant what is change in
binding energy as the other domain moves from conformation 1, through
conformation 2 to finally, conformation 3. What is the best way to do so?
You need to describe what these three conformations are. Do they involve
rotations of the domains with respect to one another
