Hi Dr. Jason,

All the same, I am very appreciated for your suggestion. Now, I am just doing other preparation. And once your new, software appeared, can you inform me? I want to use it at the first time. By the way, using the mmpbsa script, I did many mutational energy calculation work. In fact we have finished the manuscript, so I am just waiting for your new script and add the entropy part to my system. After all without entropy, it looks like lack something.

Best wishes,

Rilei Yu

Hello Rilei,

The best I can say at this point is to look at the minimization and nmode
output files to see what the gradient is calculated as in each case, and/or
wait for a week until we release the new version of MMPBSA.py (which will be
a significant update including decomposition, nab-computed nmode, and a much
better parallel scheme that parallelizes all aspects of the calculation to
as many processors as you have frames, including nmode, through MPI
implemented in the python script itself).

All the best,
Jason
