Re: Copper and Zinc: top_all27_prot_lipid.inp

Hello:
Well, my progress is slow but it seems there are two issues Topology
and Parameters. I am listing my understanding below. Please correct me
if I am wrong. I am editing topology and parameter files for the first
time.

Based on replies of Purushottam, Harish and jfgaff_at_ncsu.edu, I
performed following editions.

TOPOLOGY

I edited the topology file to include Copper and sulphate ions. Zinc
is already available in top_all27_prot_lipid.inp so as mentioned by
Harish, I will just have to read it in a separate segment and change
ZN in PDB to ZN2, CU2 for CU. Please find topology of sulphate anion
based on methylsulphate and Cu ion based on Zn ion. Does it look OK?

PARAMETER

I think I can use ZN parameters for CU as they are close. Am I right?
So I plan to add the following to the parameter file

CU 0.000000 -0.250000 1.090000 ! ALLOW ION

For sulphate ion I plan to use O2L and SL parameters. Is it Ok to do that?

O2L 0.0 -0.12 1.70
SL 0.0 -0.47 2.1

Other details:

Zn and Cu are bonded to Histidines.

I am sharing file changes to the list members as I want to make sure I
am on the right path.

Thank you,
Deepangi
