Dear All
I am doing a simulation to calculate binding energy for a complex almost in a similar way to that mentioned for “Tutorial A3: MM-PBSA”.  I have performed the MD for the ligand-protein complex up to 4ns, the results are shown below:

As far as I concerned the PBTOT shows the total binding free energy, in our calculation PBTOT is -4433508.54. It is highly negative. I think the large amount of this figure is related to ligand, what is wrong with my simulation.
 
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated,
 
Cheers,
Maryam
