Hello all,
I take a MD simulation of a protein contained Fe ion. This protein
is a receptor. And there are several ligands. So in some of them I add
countered ions Cl-. Then I did MMPBSA calculation for these
protein-ligand complex. All the systems with countered ion Cl- is
abnormal. Like this

The VDWAALS is very huge. I am sure the parameters strip_mask is
correct. I use the default parameters. It contains Cl-. Then I have
tried to drop the Cl- from the trajectory. And I use the new prmtop
file which has no countered ion. But the result is still wrong.
But the system without countered ion Cl- is good. The result is this:

This VDWAALS seems good.
This input file is same:
&general
endframe=2500, keep_files=2,
/
&gb
igb=2, saltcon=0.100,
/
&pb
istrng=0.100,
/

The two systems is the same protein. The ligands are very normal. The
most different thing is the countered ion. I think this may be caused
by Cl- at first. But I have droped this ion. I do not know why this is
still wrong. I hope someone could help me.
Thank you very much!
Xue Qiao.
