Dear all, thank you for your answers and suggestions.
Finally, I will perform TI as explained in the amber14 reference manual.
I'm employing pmemd to perform these simulations because I'm using a GPU
server.
In the reference manual is described how to obtain a single topology file
for wt and mutant proteins, but there is not described how does the group
file looks like (pag. 351). In particular: mdin and prmtop are the same
files for both lines and only the outputs are different, are both line
necessary? Or with the new commands (timask and scmask) I will obtain all
the informations in a single file?
Many thanks for helping me.
