Thanks for the reply, but I don't want to calculate the stability of the
complex. And if I use per-residue decomposition for this analysis, the
interaction energy of each residue to the total complex would be calculated
(which also includes aminoacids from the ligand part).
I am still unable to understand what is meant by the "stability" analysis
using decomposition.

Thanks,
Soumya
