Thanks for your reply, Stephan. Did the molecule you worked with have any atoms that are isolated (non-bonded) to the others? Was the equilibration run in your 1st case just a way to recruit those isolated atoms to the others in the same molecule? I suspect I might need to add artificial bond to c

Hi Anirban, You *could* use the configurations in your trajectory to (re)calculate average energies; by de-coupling your ligand this would get you the average free energy change per coupling strength change at the point where the ligand is fully bound. If you're interested in free energy of bi

Why not do a steered MD or umbrella sampling, where you start with the ligand in the binding pocket (in its correct conformation) and gradually pull it out. If done correctly, you should get a nice PMF. > Hello! > I need to calculate the free energy of complex formation between protein A > and li

Sorry, I really didn't get, what your goal is and what, in fact, you really want to do. For free energy calculations, you can - either do Thermodynamic integration (the lambda 0/1 stuff) - or pulling (force probe) and afterwards use Jarzynskis theorem - or umbrella sampling together with WHAM (i

Hi, You are probably starting your runs from a non equilibrated structure. I don't think this is necessarily true: For example, you could be seeing the crash you describe on the first step of equilibration... However, you might want to make usre you have thoroughly *minimized* at each lambda v

You are probably starting your runs from a non equilibrated structure. Assume, the system changes via a slow growth run. The atoms may rearrange due to changes in their potentials. Therefore it may be problematic, if you start from the same structure for different lambdas. Try simulating a one wa

Ignacio, OK, I do basically the same, but instead of starting the second equilibration from the same structure for each lambda, I start from the final structure of the previous lambda (still, I equilibrate before production for each lambda). I don't see why this strategy should be worse the one
