Dear amber users,

After allocating more memory, the entropy calculation works now (6000MB). But after review these results, I am not confident with them. In my system, I just did a single residue mutation, but I found very big entropy difference between different mutants. Here I showed part of the values below:
Wide: -8.39
D5A: -26.01
R7Q:-26.62
R7E:-5.9
W10A:-27.04
W10Y:-13.9
S4A:-34.44
R11A:-35.64
What I really want to say is,here, R11 is outside of the binding pocket. The mutational binding free energy excluded entropy is near to be 0. But here the entropy difference is more than 20! So may be there are some problem with my calculation?
