Hello,
Take a look at the imin=5 option in sander (manual). That will let
you process a trajectory just as though it were a series of input
coordinate files. Choosing a maxcyc of 0 or 1 will simply extract the
energies. I believe you are able to set ntb=1 or 2 (equivalent in the
case of a single-point energy calculation I believe). You can then
proceed to use ptraj to strip the ligand from the receptor and analyze
the receptor alone with this method and the same for the ligand
(you'll need separate, compatible prmtops for each step). Then taking
the difference complex - receptor - ligand will give you the binding
energy. This is basically MM/PBSA with periodic boundary
conditions...
Good luck!
