Dear Sir, Thank you for your reply. I have read the 3D-RISM part in amber 14 manual and also seen in ../AMBER/amber14/dat/rism1d/model
path there is no Strontium model (.mdl file for Strontium ). What should I do ?? please help me.
Thanks and regards,Saikat Pal

Can't really be done in any version of Amber. We wrote a paper years ago
outlining the problems with estimating metal ion affinities via mmPBSA:
%A V. Tsui
%A D.A. Case
%T Calculations of the Absolute Free Energies of Binding between RNA and Metal
Ions Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Continuum Electrostatics
%J J. Phys. Chem. B
%V 105
%P 11314-11325
%D 2001
Old, but I think the caveats are still valid: the answer depends so heavily
on the parameters one assigns to the ion as to be nearly meaningless. In
my view, studies of divalent ions really need explicit waters (and are still
very difficult). 3D-RISM might be an alternative approach, but that is very
much an active research area.
