Hi,
Please correct me if I wrong here but the way I have understood what you
are trying to do is calculate the binding of two different ligands when the
other is bound to the complex. How did you arrive at the conclusion that the
snapshots were made incorrectly (did an error occur when trying to calculate
the binding affinity)? One error could be that you are not using the correct
topology file with the .crd generated by mmpbsa.pl when viewing the
structure in for example VMD/Pymol or etc. Check the crd file generated to
see if got the total number of atoms correct at least? Did you make 5
topology files: *1)* complex, *2)* receptor with ligand-2 bound
*3)*ligand-1 only
*4)* receptor with ligand-1 bound *5)* ligand-2 only?
