Parker,

I think so- someone might be able to give a more detailed answer than me,
but if you have MMPBSA decompose the binding energy by a per residue basis,
you'll be able to estimate their relative contributions. That said, you'll
may want to have it decompose all residues if you can, and run the
hetrodimer without the phosphoserine present so you can have a point of
comparison to see how it contributes.

A more general example off the top of my head is
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11054292- it is fairly dated and there's
probably much more recent work done since that would be worth looking into.

Best,

Kenneth
