Hi,

I have a puzzle with MMPBSA calculations using Sander in Amber10 and
Amber11 versions.

 

I am running MMPBSA calculations on a moderate size protein:ligand
complex (about 300AAs).

 

When I use the same topology, trajectory and inpcrd files along with
the same mdinp options, the EPB value is lower in Amber 10 by about
12kcal/mol. All other numbers (vdw, Coulomb term, cavity term) match
between Amber 10 and Amber 11.

 

I am wondering if any of the default parameters have changed between
versions 10 and 11.

 

Here are the input options that I use.

 

&cntrl

nsnb=99999, ntb=0, cut=999.000000, imin=5,igb=10,

/

&pb

sprob=1.400000, maxitn=1000, fillratio=4.000000

radiopt=0, npopt=1, dbfopt=1, cavity_surften=0.005240,

/

END

 

Thanks!

Dam
