Hi,
 
I have performed MMGBSA calculations for a protein bound to a known drug molecule and the same protein bound to a designed inhibitor molecule. The EEL component for designed molecule showed positive value while that for the known drug molecule showed high negative value, although the final binding free energy (delta total) shows higher value for designed molecule. Does it mean that the newly desinged molecule has less interaction towards target protein.The results of the calculations are given below:
1)Known drug molecule
