GROMACS version: 2023
I am new to GROMACS and want to simulate ligand-protein complex using lipid bilayer model. Is the DPPC model available for this version. I’m a bit confused. Please help
Dear @priya_0507 ,
The lipid bilayers are not related to GROMACS version, but to what force field you want to use (which, to some extend, may be limited by the software you want to use).
You want to simulate DPPC and a ligand-protein, so you can user AMBER, CHARMM36m, GROMOS, MARTINI force fields etc, it really comes down to the level of detail you want. I can guess you may want to use all-atoms simulations, but this really comes down to the system you want to study.
However, given this question of yours, I feel like you are very new to this kind of simulations and on what they do relay. I encourage you to go through this suite of tutorials, specifically the first, the second and the fifth. They can really help you figure out what is this about and to better tune your focus for your research. Hope this helps! :)
