Protein-Protein or Protein-Peptide alchemistry? #682
Comments
@amin-sagar, thanks for your question. Unfortunately at this time, treating an alchemical peptide with an appropriate protein force field is not be feasible. You could treat it as a small molecule but although you would have to stick to either GAFF or OpenFF small molecule force fields and AM1-BCC partial charges (both of which are not very adequate for treating peptides). |
Thanks @IAlibay |
So I think we can use espaloma for the small molecule, so you could have your peptide be parameterized with this and have the protein prepped with whichever AMBER FF version you want. To do think I think you'd need to set the small molecule forcefield to whichever version of espaloma you want to try out. I haven't tried this out at all though - @mikemhenry might know if there's some issues to be careful of. |
Thanks @IAlibay @mikemhenry
I also tried espaloma-0.2.2, but I get
I couldn't find more details about using espaloma in the documentation. |
Hello.
Now,

This happens if I use espaloma0.3.2 (i.e. without .pt) as well. The simulation then proceeds as normal. If this warning can be ignored, it seems using espaloma works now. Is there a reason openfe first complains about the file? Thanks. |
I tried copying the espaloma0.3.2.pt file to the simulation folder as this is one of the folders openFE searches. This also runs the simulations. However, I get
Can this be ignored? |
Dear OpenFE team.
Thanks for this awesome work.
This is related to #633 #634 and #636
I would like to start with a protein-peptide co-crystal structure and modify the peptide by
Are there any special instructions for doing such calculations or should I treat my peptide as a small molecule and follow the lysozyme-benzene tutorial?
I would be really grateful for any suggestions.
Best,
Amin.
