Dear all,
I'm trying to calculate binding energy between glucose molecule and pure
water by using AMBER 11 package. What I'm getting in trouble is GBtot has
positive value (delta section in snap_statistics.out file). As you know,
water interacts with glucose strongly, which means Binding energy should be
negative value.
There is single glucose molecule in TIP3P water box (625 molecules). and
this simulation is 10ns simulation under NVT condition.
Here belows are scripts which I've used,

Could anyone give me an advice to figure it out ?
Thanks you in advance.
