I want to calculate proteins aggregation in presence of a certain concentration (M) of sugar by using martini force field. Is there any tutorial to follow. I have already prepared a system consisting of proteins, ions and water by using this tutorial " www.cgmartini.nl/index.php/tutorials-gen...n-gmx5/proteins-gmx5 ". Now my next target is to prepare a system consisting of proteins, ions, water and certain concentration of sugar.

You can find the Martini 2 sugar topologies here:
cgmartini.nl/images/parameters/ITP/martini_v2.0_sugars.itp

If the list does not contain the specific sugar you are interested in, you will have to a) parameterize it yourself, b) look at the literature and try to find a topology there.

Also be aware that Martini 2 overestimates the strength of protein–protein interactions: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ct400008p

This is totally late but, for future reference, note also that sugar-sugar interactions are overestimated as well in Martini 2: pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.jctc.7b00374

Hey riccardo,

are there parameterization files for sugars available yet? As you stated the parameters from martini2 lead to unrealistic cluster creation.

Thank you very much
