Protein::protein binding is a tremendously hard problem, from a sampling
point of view. The potentials are pretty good, but it sounds almost like a
delta G of folding calculation to bring two proteins into a docked pose and
then pull them apart. I was having a discussion earlier about the extent
of our functionality in Amber, but the CHARMM community has a very clever
method for implementing a harmonic restraint in the contact score (I'd
imagine the algebra is really tedious) to run one-dimensional umbrella
sampling calculations at various degrees of protein folding. You should be
able to leverage that sort of contact score to define bound and unbound
states of your two proteins.

See one of their papers:

Good luck!
