mm_pbsa positive binding energies

Dear all,

We did some mm_pbsa calculations.

The resulting final free energy differences
are positive ( using the Poisson Boltzman (PB) option).

We expect negative dG values
because the binding of the ligand to the receptor
happens in the micromolar range.

We obtain similar results for other ligands.

We think that it has something to do with the fact that
our ligands are (-) charged and there are also counterions present
in the receptor.

All comments are very much appreciated.


best regards,
matheus froeyen
