Table 5.

Compressibility (KA) of the fully hydrated pure lipid membrane comparing experimental measurements with simulations using the Drude polarizable force field and the C36 additive force field. Error estimations are based on block-averaging approach by dividing the simulation trajectories into two blocks. Hydration numbers are listed in Table 1.

Values obtained from simulations generated with a pair-specific Lennard-Jones Rmin (NBFIX) of 3.91 Å between the amino nitrogen and phosphate oxygen rather than the value of 3.71 Å generated from the standard combination rule.
