Re: parameter and topology files for martini polarizable water

Hello Klas,

You can find the MARTINI topology and parameter files for protein, lipids,
ions, water etc in the RBCG tutorial files:
http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Training/Tutorials/martini/files.tar.gz
All MARTINI Material is located in the '04-cgc-top-par-files' folder. They
are all in CHARMM format.
Someone (i.e. the web admins) should, at some point, make a more official
page in the site for these parameters.

Cheers,
Fotis Baltoumas
