 You may look at:
 Strader ML, Feller SE. 2002. A Flexible All-Atom Model of Dimethyl
 Sulfoxide for Molecular Dynamics Simulations. J Phys Chem A 106: 1074
 Mihailescu D, Smith JC. 1999. Molecular dynamics simulation of the cyclic
 decapeptide antibiotic, gramicidin S, in dimethyl sulfoxide solution. J
 Phys Chem B 103: 1586
 Two different models.

 Hi Wei,
 Check out Krzysztof's site:
 http://pekoe.chem.ukans.edu/~kuczera/Public/web/html/charmm/proc/
 proc.html
 It has a fairly detailed tutorial utilizing DMSO.
 Cheers,
 Mike

 The AMBER-type DMSO parameters used in the following paper could be adopted
 in your CHARmm simulations:
