Hi Wang,
Are you running this simulation in explicit solvent? If so then the PME
routines etc are not strictly pairwise decomposable so you can't actually
evaluate the energy of a single molecule. You can, however, obtain the
internal energy for a molecule (bonds, angles, dihedrals etc). If you are
running implicit solvent GB then you can do a pairwise decomposition to find
an individual molecules contribution to the total energy.
See idecomp on page 26 of the AMBER 10 manual.
Good luck,
Ross
