Hi Par Bjelkmar,<div><br></div><div><div><br></div><div>I need to do an all atom simulation for dppc bilayer . You are right the dppc molecule file that i have has PALM and PCGL residues. </div><div><br></div><div>I will like to try to set up the charmm FF for gromacs. But I dont have the FF files with me, neither do i have the programs. Could you send me a tutorial or some reference link too ( if you know of any).</div>
