Binding thermodynamics of host-guest systems with SMIRNOFF99Frosst from the Open Force Field Group

Manuscript description

This repository describes setting up and running host-guest binding free energy calculations on cyclodextrins using the SMIRNOFF99Frosst force field.

Code and data availability

For information related to the setup and analysis of the calculations, please see:

• GitHub repository used to convert AMBER input files from GAFF force field to SMIRNOFF99Frosst.
• GitHub repository for setting up the attach-pull-release calculations using paprika version 0.0.3.
• GitHub repository for analyzing the simulations and generating the plots in this manuscript.
• GitHub repository for the Open Force Field group containing the toolkit and force field XML file.
