Hello Luca, if you're referring to QM/MM support, it may be a good idea to
think first about the quantum mechanical method that you want to use (DFT,
MP2 or other post-HF methods) since these are the major constraint when
considering the coupling between quantum and classical MD.
What does the quantum chemistry literature say for the proteins of your
interest?
