Hi,

I am dealing with the same problem.
Right now, I am trying to compute the energetic contribution of the binding using MMPSA.py and using the flag -eo energyout, which gives you the energy values for each considered frame for complex, receptor and ligand. You can check the convergence over simulation time.
I hope this can help.
All the best,
T.

Subject: [AMBER] MMGBSA: estimating "effective energy" convergence

I’m dealing with a homodimer and have calculated the “effective energy” of binding of the two subunits using MMGBSA.

The calculation was done from as single trajectory MD simulation.

In order to check whether the “effective energy” of binding has converged, I would like to extract the time-series of the sums of gas-phase energies and solvation free energies as computed for the trajectory snapshots of the unbound subunitA, subunitB, and the complex subunitA – subunitB.

I guess, I can do this by parsing the temporary files obtained (e.g. _MMPBSA_complex_gb.mdout) that contain the energy components. My question is if there is a better way of doing what I described above.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

George
