ParmBSC0: New force-field for molecular dynamics simulations of nucleic acids

The Life Science Program (MMB-group) distributed the parmBSC0 force-field for simulation of nucleic acids. The force-field, an evolution of AMBER-parm99 was derived from high level QM data and was tested on near 1 µsec of MD simulations. We found a high performance in this force-field, which was able to derive reliable trajectories in long simulation times.
