Subject: CFF91 Forcefield for Carbohydrates?
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


In the tutorial for InsightII (the Biosym 95.0 release), there is an example of
building a carbohydrate.  The resulting structure was minimized using the CFF91
forcefield.

Is anyone aware of CFF91 being parameterized for carbohydrates?  Is there a
literature or WWW reference for these possibly new parameters?

Thanks...
