Hi Boutheina,

there are several different answers depending on what 'the free energy
profile' is. If you want to follow a reaction coordinate you could use
Ambers umbrella sampling facilities. If the difference between two defined
end states is of interest, MM-PBSA might be the method of choice or for
small chemical changes, you could employ the thermodynamic integration
free energy methods. If you want to analyse a nonequilibrium free energy
profile using Jarcynskis equation, you could try out the jar/SMD
facilities. We need somewhat more information about your specific question
to help here.

Kind Regards,
