   Dear Ray,
   My understanding is that decomposition analysis needs Amber 11 not Amber 10
   ...is there a role in AmberTool in that? sorry correct me if I understand
   wrong?
   Thanks

     Dear Mahmoud,
     Is there any reason that you cannot install the latest free AmberTool
     release? Also, are you using the mmpbsa perl script for this? Can you run
     the example?
     All the best,
     Ray

       Dear All,
       In our group we only have Amber 10 installed on the cluster and as I
     know
       decomposition analysis PBSA calculation can not be done using Amber 10.
     Let
       me quickly explain to you the piece of work I am trying to investigate
     using
       Amber. I would like to explore the influence of the nearby active site
       residues on the ligand binding to the enzyme. Mutation of some of these
       residues resulted in a complete loss of the enzyme activity. I was
     planning
       to run PBSA calculation to see how each residue contributes to the
     overall
       binding using the decomposition analysis method but I realized that
     Amber10
       can not achieve this.My question is can I calculate the total binding
     energy
       for the wild type then do the same thing for a particular mutant, I
     wonder,
       can that give me an estimate on the contribution of this residue that I
     have
       mutated to the overall binding .... Your scientific idea are most
     welcome!!!
       Thanks in advance
       Best wishes
       Mahmoud
