[AMBER] Can I use ”°-rewrite-output”± option in redoing the free energy calculation

Hi everybody,

I came across a problem in binding-free-energy calculation with MMPBSA.

I calculated the binding-free-energy with the input file as below:

Input file for running PB
&general
   startframe=201, verbose=1,
/
&pb
  istrng=0.100, cavity_surften = 0.03252
/

Now I want to calculate the free energy again by changing "cavity_surften" from 0.0378 to 0.0278. So I modify the input file and use the following command:

MMPBSA [original command-line arguments] -rewrite-output

But the result of 0.0378 is just the same with 0.0278.

Is it appropriate to use "-rewrite-output" here for time-saving purpose in my case? Or should I redo the calculation when I modify "cavity_surften" here?

Many thanks!

Cao Yang,
