Picking Angle in Martini was created by mohammadsb
Hi,

Is anybody knows how we pick angles in Martini forcefield? I am trying to implement Martini forcefield in my MC code.
I noticed some of angle parameters have not been defined in Martini forcefield and coupling 1-3 interaction with angle energy would not give me correct distribution compare to MD code.

For example in picking angle for C1-C1-C1, MD(NAMD) code shows highest probability of picking 150 degree and my code shows 180. Here is My BONDED and NONBONDED parameters in Charmm format and my calculation for angle and 1-3 nonbonded energy.
I would appreciate if someone could help me.


BONDS
C1 C1 1.4937859 4.8 ! Dry Martini

ANGLES
C1 C1 C1 4.18260038 180 cos ! Dry Martini

NONBONDED
C1 C1 -1.075525812 5.2755716 ! Dry Martin II


at theta = 150, angle energy is 37.7 K, 1-3 nonbonded energy is -32.22 K => sum = 5.48
at theta = 180, angle energy is 0.0 K, 1-3 nonbonded energy is -14.3 K => sum = -14.3

So, it is more favorable to pick 180 instead of 150.

Hi,

it is not clear what you mean - which system are you simulating here?

And what do you mean by 'picking'?

In Martini all angles are usually defined

Please clarify ...
