freezing part of the system in GB is not as trivial as with non-GB
calculations, since one still needs to calculate
descreening effects between frozen atoms so that the effective Born
radii are known for the frozen atoms
when calculating their interaction with the moving part. This has been
addressed in the literature
(Still, J. Comp. Chem 2002). There may be other reasons as well that
others may point out,
but you could probably modify the code to get it working.
