> I am not sure if I understand correctly, is the total binding energy of a drug (read from the per-residue result page) equals to -30 (from residue 1 to 500) plus -32 (from the drug).
>
> However, I cannot quite understand why the drug could have -30 interaction energy with itself. How can I interprete the data?
