unless you have a reason to think about ff02, don't involve it any more.
it's not related to the Onufriev paper and not related to ff99.
if you want to know about ff02, then we can talk about that.
for the paper you mentioned, it was an early version of ff99SB but had some
weaknesses, especially in glycine, which we improved later in ff99SB.
ff99SB is what I suggest that you use. ff99 is very bad, please don't use it
unless you want to know something specific, but not to learn anything about
proteins.
also unless you want to do comparisons yourself, I suggest checking the
literature because many comparisons have already been published.
if you just want to run the best simulation that you can, I suggest ff99SB
(but be careful with GB, the GB-OBC model is very good but does have a few
minor weaknesses that have also been reported in the literature).
