Dear Ilyas Yildirim and D. Case,
I hope I am very close to get the right system.
Again, [Amber8 manual :An atom isconsidered to be perturbed if its PertType
is different than its Type. The upshot of this is that you can change the
charge of an atom without making the atom become "perturbed".]
And considring that the PERT.charge will be affected during the TI
calculation, I have made two system setup of my complex system (both of them
are already equilibrated in gas and solvent medium by doing 2.5 ns MD) for
ALA --> GLY TI calculation.
The PERT.charge will as in the attached file.
Am I doing still doing something stupid?
Can I start the TI calculation from this point using 12 windows ?
However, I assume that the second method of "disappearing" could not be used
for the ALA --> GLY mutation free energy changes.
Sincerely,
Jiten
