Abstract

Empirical force fields (FFs) commonly used to describe the condensed‐phase properties of complex systems such as biological macromolecules are continuously being updated. Improvements in quantum mechanical methods used to generate target data, availability of new experimental target data, incorporation of new classes of compounds, and new theoretical developments (e.g., polarizable methods) make FF development a dynamic domain of research. Accordingly, a number of improvements and extensions of the Chemistry at HARvard Molecular Mechanics (CHARMM) FFs have occurred over the years. The objective of the present review is to provide an up‐to‐date overview of the CHARMM FFs. A limited presentation on the historical aspects of FFs will be given, including underlying methodologies and principles, along with a brief description of the strategies used for parameter development. This is followed by information on the CHARMM additive and polarizable FFs, including examples of recent applications of those FFs. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
