Dear Amber Community
I have a very stupid question. I want to perform QM/MM simulation on one
protein-ligand system. The system, I have been dealing with, needs water
molecules for the reaction chemistry in the active site. I have been
considering three different approaches for the same.
1. Minimize and equilibrate the system with MM and then directly start
with QM/MM production run
2. Minimize with MM and further processing with QM/MM potentials.
3. Start QM/MM processing directly from beginning.
Although, Approach-3 looks to be very convenient, at early stage it is very
difficult to pin-point the water molecules, to be included in QM region.
I am very new to QM/MM simulation. I would be grateful to you if you could
suggest me the right approach.
Regards
Pankaj
