Re: [AMBER] Thermodynamic integration

For decharge, the code checks if the coordinates of the atoms are exactly the same (well if they're within 0.1 angstroms distance apart), so if its finding mismatches in the atom's it means the coordinates of ligand 1 and ligand 2 are different. You need to make sure the ligands have the exact same coordinates.

For vdw, I actually don't have an idea what's going on there. Your input looks correct. Check if for some reason all your residues are named BG1.

    thank you, Charles.
    I am facing few problems while running calculations could you please
    suggest where I am doing wrong?
    I followed protocol as below:-

    I used libraries for the charged and uncharged state of ligand to build a
    combined PDB file as mentioned in linear scaling, after parametrization and
    running a short MD, I followed descharging step as below:-
    heating
     &cntrl
       imin = 0, nstlim = 10000, irest = 0, ntx = 1, dt = 0.002,
       ntt = 1, temp0 = 300.0, tempi = 50.0, tautp = 1.0,
       ntc = 2, ntf = 1,
       ntb = 1,
       ioutfm = 1, iwrap = 1,
       ntwe = 1000, ntwx = 1000, ntpr = 1000, ntwr = 5000,

       nmropt = 1,
       ntr = 1, restraint_wt = 5.00,
       restraintmask='!:WAT & !.H=',

       icfe = 1, clambda = 0.0, scalpha = 0.5, scbeta = 12.0,
       logdvdl = 0,
       timask1 = ':BG0', timask2 = ':BG1',
       ifsc = 0,
     /

     &ewald
     /

     &wt
       type='TEMP0',
       istep1 = 0, istep2 = 8000,
       value1 = 50.0, value2 = 300.0
     /

     &wt type = 'END'
     /

    But I am having following error in heat.out:-

    Checking for mismatched coordinates.
         Error : Atom 1 does not have match in V1 !


    Also for *VDW stage*, I stripped off 1st charged ligand (BG0) from combined
    PDB and used uncharged (BG1) ligand for vdw setup but I am getting:-

      Molecule 1 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
         Molecule 2 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
         Molecule 3 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
         Molecule 4 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
         Molecule 5 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
    .
    .
    .
    .
    .
     Molecule 2856 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
         Molecule 2857 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
     Number of triangulated 3-point waters found: 2854
     Number of shake restraints removed in TI region 1 : 0
     Number of shake restraints removed in TI region 2 : 0

         Sum of charges for TI region 1 = 0.00000000
         Forcing neutrality...


         Sum of charges for TI region 2 = 0.00000000
         Forcing neutrality...



    Summary of dvdl values over 100000 steps:

       imin = 0, nstlim = 100000, irest = 1, ntx = 5, dt = 0.002,

       ntwe = 1000, ntwx = 10000, ntpr = 10000, ntwr = 20000,



       icfe = 1, clambda = 0.0, scalpha = 0.5, scbeta = 12.0,

       logdvdl = 1,

       ifmbar = 1, mbar_states= 11,

       mbar_lambda= 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0

       timask1 = ':BG1', timask2 = '',

       ifsc=1, scmask1=':BG1', scmask2='',

    I need your suggestions, please.
