Hi all
I apologize for the length of this in advance. But this is info for those that
have asked about
where to find parameters for CHARMM force fields. It is taken from http://master2.lobos.nih.gov/Charmm/c28a2/parmfile.html.
I hope this helps and again I apologize for its length.
Richard

Phased out: The CHARMM22 all-atom nucleic acid and lipid topology and
parameter files are no longer included in the toppar directory due to
their becoming obsolete. Note that they are included in the
toppar_history directories.
The CHARMM all-hydrogen topology and parameter sets may be
considered to be stable, however, minor bug fixes may be performed as
required. Additions may also occur leading to an expanding set of
parameters which are compatible across proteins, nucleic acids,
lipids, and, ultimately, carbohydrates. The carbohydrate(sugar)
parameter work is still in progress by John Brady and coworkers; the
number of sugar types should expand in the future. See the file
toppar_all.history for a listing changes in the files over time.
top_all22_model.inp includes the majority of model compounds used in
the protein parameterization and is to be used in conjunction with
par_all22_prot.inp.
Three sets of combined topology and parameter files are included
for use with 1) proteins and nucleic acids, 2) protein and lipids
and 3) nucleic acids and lipids. In all cases the CHARMM22 protein
parameters and the CHARMM27 nucleic acid or lipid parameters are
used. The designation all27 for these files is based on the
use of the most recent nucleic acid or lipid parameters. Test
calculations using these combined files have yielded good results.
Added as of July 1997 was the parameter file par_hbond.inp. This file
is included for the analysis of hydrogen bonds; it includes
information to calculate h-bond energies, but these are basically
meaningless. The hydrogen bonds should NOT be used for energy,
minimization and dynamics calculations with the CHARMM all-hydrogen
topology and parameter sets.
Ions in the all22 files are from two sources. Mg and Ca are from
Prodhom and Karplus and were optimized specifically for the all22
parameters. The remaining cations are from Benoit Roux (see his
thesis). They were optimized to be consistent with Param19, however,
MD studies in a number of groups have shown them to work well. Note
the presence of a variety of NBFIXES for the ions. These were
initially optimized based on the proteins and later transferred to the
lipids and nucleic acids based on analogy (by ADM Jr.). Ions in the
all27 files have been optimized based on free energies of solvation
by Roux and coworkers. As of August 1999 there were no NBFIXes
used with these ions.
The extended atom parameters for proteins are the same as those
included with CHARMM20 which are based on Wally Reiher's thesis. They
have been included in the supplement material of a recent publication
(see suggested citations below). For the extended atom nucleic acid
parameters those of Nilsson and Karplus, J. Comp. Chem. 7:591-616,
1986 are used which were also included in the CHARMM20 release and are
the only set to include explicit hydrogen bonding terms. Some
alterations of the extended atom nucleic acid topology and parameter
files have been made in order to maintain compatibility with the
multiple dihedral scheme in CHARMM22.
