So, let's take this time the
NR1  CPH1  CPH2  H
NR1  CPH2  CPH1  H

example. For such quartets,  the improper dihedral parameters are defined
for HSD residue.
Now, the bonding is as follows in part of HSD:
   H
   |
 NR1
   /\
  CPH1CPH2

In my top file generated with pdb2gmx I can see the improper dihedral
entries for both
NR1  CPH1  CPH2  H
NR1  CPH2  CPH1  H
Also after dumping the tpr file I can see IDIHS entries for both
arrangement of atoms for the same molecule.

According to Gromacs manual, the entry for improper dihedral i j k l is
understood as follows
 l
 |
 i
   /   \
 j  k

So maybe I'm blind but I still don't really understand  the purpose of
changing the middle atom types
if there is in fact only one way these four atoms are connected in HSD. The
only reason I see is to
make it more rigid because I have "doubled" improper.


Again, I would not call it a "doubled" parameter, because they are 
clearly different in atom order. This usually implies a difference in 
stereochemistry; in this case, I don't know the history of why the 
impropers are assigned this way, but going back to the original CHARMM 
topologies there are in fact two impropers assigned around ND1, CD2, and 
CE1. The use of two terms with the same parameters but different 
connectivities is probably due to having to avoid some kind of 
asymmetry, though it seems unusual. Regardless, it is a faithful (and 
correct) representation of the force field and we have tested it for 
agreement between CHARMM and GROMACS.

Re: [gmx-users] Purpose of repeated improper dihedrals

Thank you for an asnwer. However, I still need to ask more.
So, let's take this time the
NR1  CPH1  CPH2  H
NR1  CPH2  CPH1  H

example. For such quartets,  the improper dihedral parameters are defined
for HSD residue.
Now, the bonding is as follows in part of HSD:
  H
  |
NR1
  /\
 CPH1CPH2

In my top file generated with pdb2gmx I can see the improper dihedral
entries for both
NR1  CPH1  CPH2  H
NR1  CPH2  CPH1  H
Also after dumping the tpr file I can see IDIHS entries for both
arrangement of atoms for the same molecule.

According to Gromacs manual, the entry for improper dihedral i j k l is
understood as follows
l
|
i
  /   \
j  k

So maybe I'm blind but I still don't really understand  the purpose of
changing the middle atom types
if there is in fact only one way these four atoms are connected in HSD. The
only reason I see is to
make it more rigid because I have "doubled" improper.

Dear All,

Why some of the improper parameters in CHARMM27 FF are repeated with

HR1 NR1 NR2 CPH22   0.  4.184
HR1 NR2 NR1 CPH22   0.  4.184


These aren't repeated parameters. They are different parameters 
corresponding to different connectivity.

[gmx-users] Purpose of repeated improper dihedrals

Dear All,

Why some of the improper parameters in CHARMM27 FF are repeated with
the middle atom types in a different order as in, e.g.

HR1 NR1 NR2 CPH22   0.  4.184
HR1 NR2 NR1 CPH22   0.  4.184

while some are not, e.g.
HR3 CPH1NR3 CPH12   0.  8.368
