Hi all,
I would like just add some additional info regarding
my original question (please read below).
First of all here are precise numbers including standard deviations.
I am also attaching RMSD inormation from both stand alone simulations
and from complex simulation. The red line pointed the moment where
I started with energetical analysis. It seems that some prolongation
of the simulation would be not a bad idea (I have already started with
this)
but I am afraid if the analysis from some extended part of the simulation
affect significantly below reported mean values of dG.
From the attached picture "B_malt_ssDNA_11ns.png" where you can see
discussed complex after 11 ns of simulation is pretty clear that
final binding energy should be here favourable (there is evident nice
complexation) it means negative.
I am also attaching direct mm_pbsa results from both analysis (ONE and
THREE trajectories).
So again, any hints are highly welcomed !
With the best regards
Marek
ONE TRAJECTORY APPROACH
dH - mean value -53,67
dH - standard deviation 13,11
TdS - mean value -74,53
TdS - standard deviation 9,05
dG = dH - TdS - mean value 20,86
dG = dH - TdS - standard deviation 15,93030445
TWO TRAJECTORIES APPROACH
Three trajectory approach
dH - mean value -13,08
dH - standard deviation 57,34
TdS - mean value -79,41
TdS - standard deviation 9,26
dG = dH - TdS - mean value 66,33
dG = dH - TdS - standard deviation 58,08289938
