Can amber14sb-parmbsc1 force field file be used for protein simulation? Because I know that this force field package is mainly used for nucleic acid simulation. I don’t know whether this package includes protein force field and patch or only patch?

GROMACS version:
GROMACS modification: Yes/No

ff14SB is a protein force field, parmbsc1 is a nucleic acid force field. Whoever generated the force field distribution should be able to tell you this, because it isn’t provided as part of GROMACS.
