Hi Mark,

Yes you are correct. Also note that the GAFF parameters all have lower case
atom types while the protein and DNA force fields use upper case. This was
deliberate to allow them to work together. You can also mix FF99SB with GAFF
for example. (but FF99SB with FF03 would not work...)

All the best
Ross
