Hi,
I do analysis on peptide binding in protein. I have found that majority
of people use very short trajectories to feed for MM-PBSA calculations
(200-500 ps from different references). I compared MM-PBSA results and
realized that final dH is very sensitive to the particular segment of
trajectory is used to calculate binding energies. Also, it seems that
MM-PBSA method is very sensitive to the number of frames I use.
I understand problems of protein/peptide sampling. However, some values
dH fluctuate ~ 10 kcal/mol using different trajectory length or
different segment. I wander how to address that issue of guessing what
trajectory segment and length should be taken for MM-PBSA calculation ?
With best
Arturas
