Hello,

I am trying to calculate the potential energy of an individual amino acid and its interaction energy with the rest of the protein. I have found another user with a similar problem: http://www.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2007-May/027114.html so I tried to follow the same procedure. An index-file was made containing a group with the specific residu (r_8 in this case) and a group of the rest of the protein without this residu (Protein_&_!r_8). The mdp-file was changed as well, now containing:
energygrps                                =    r_8
energygrps_excl                           =    Protein_&_!r_8 non-Protein
so basically only the energy of r_8 would be calculated with the following commands: grompp -f ppmd_r8.mdp -c mdwater.pdb -p topol.top -o topol_md_r8.tpr -t traj_mdwater.trr -n r8.ndx mdrun -s topol_md_r8.tpr -c md_r8.pdb -e ener_md_r8.edr -rerun traj_md.trr (thus feeding the trajectory again but now with the new selection)
then g_energy -f ener_md_r8.edr -s topol_md_r8.tpr -o Epot_r8.xvg
Unfortunately the output still gives me the energy of the whole protein and not of the specific residu. Any idea of what went wrong?

So of what groups did g_energy suggest you could get output?
