Hi Qiong,

I'm forwarding this to Qin to see whether this has been resolved in
Amber12/AmberTools ...

Dear Prof. Luo,

Sorry that the files may not be attached in the previous mail. Here
are they. Great thanks!

Hi All,

I am using amber11/ambertools1.5 and found a problem with per-residue
decomposed PB energies when explicit water molecules were included in
the analyses.



The problem is that when explicit water molecules are included in the
per-residue decomposed PB calculation, the decomposed vdw and ele
energies for those explicit water molecules are all zero. I tested
this on several different systems with explicit waters, this problem
existed in all cases.



Attached are the results from a decomposed PB calculation for a simple
system- a ligand and 35 water molecules. In decomp-pbsa.dat, it is
found that vdw and ele energies for explicit water molecules are all
zero. pb-decomp-result.dat is the FINAL RESULT from the decomposed PB
calculation and pb-result.dat is the FINAL RESULT from the normal
non-decomposed PB calculation. The total energies and binding free
energies in pb-decomp-result.dat are very close to those in
pb-result.dat, which indicates that the input files for the
per-residue decomposed PB calculation are correct.



Then why the decomposed vdw and ele energies for those explicit water
molecules are all zero in decomposed PB calculations please? Is it a
bug? In addition, decomposed GB values are all OK for the included
explicit water molecules.



Could you please give me some suggestions on this issue please? Thanks a lot!



Qiong
