This explanation is not correct. Basically, sander (in its current
incarnation) is not designed to do vacuum minimizations. It tries to trick
the system into thinking it is periodic, solely for the purpose of using the
list generator designed for periodic systems.
It would be better for the mm_pbsa scripts (new or old, perl or python) to
set up minimzation scripts using a nab script (something like
amber11/test/nab/txmin.nab). For now, you should visualize your system
before and after minimization, to try to see what is going wrong...it looks
like it is changing shape drastically upon minimization. If so, the
minimization (and any subsequent normal mode calculations) are not going to
do you much good in an MM-PBSA context.
