POPC with varying amounts of cholesterol, 450 mM of CaCl_2. Charmm36 with default Charmm ions

Simulations of a POPC bilayer with varying amounts (0, 10, 20, and 30 mol-%) of cholesterol and 450 mM of CaCl_2 performed at 310 K. The POPC bilayer consists of 200 lipids (100 per leaflet) and on top of that there is 0 (0%), 22 (10%), 50 (20%), or 86 (30%) of cholesterol. The Charmm36 model [1,2] is employed for lipids, the Charmm compatible variant of the tip3p model for water, and the default Charmm ion parameters (type CAL) for CaCl_2.

The Charmm36 force field parameters were obtained from http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/charmm_ff.shtml .

The files are in GROMACS format and named based on the amount of cholesterol present (in %) in the corresponding simulation. Trajectories (.xtc) are 2 µs long with data saved every 100 ps. Additionally, the final structure (.gro), topology (.top), index file (.ndx), energy output file (.edr), and binary run input files (for Gromacs 5.0->) (.tpr) are provided for each system. The common simulation parameter file (.mdp) is also provided.
