Thank you Dan
I’d be grateful of some additional clarifications.
If I modify the script according to your suggestion (see below) - which I may have misunderstood -
hbond H1 :1-125 :126 nointramol out Nhbond2.agr avgout avg2.dat bridgeout Bridge2.dat solventdonor :WAT solventacceptor :WAT.O
I get a warning: Warning: [hbond] Not all arguments handled: [ :126 ]
and as a consequence no h-bonding interactions of the ligand. Please note :126 is the ligand.
One additional clarification concerning the definition for [UU] (solute-solute bonds). The solute in my case is the receptor-ligand complex. I guess [UU] then refers to receptor-ligand h-bonds. Am I wrong?
Thanks once again for your help
George
