   how about using MMPBSA method to evaluate the effect of mutation on protein
   binding? Iâm not sure.

   Best

     I'm not sure what sort of calculation you are thinking about here. I'd
     suggest making the softcore region be the amino acid that is mutating.
     Then
     perform the mutation once in the presence of the second protein, then
     again
     in its absence. The difference will give you an estimate of the effect of
     the mutation on protein-protein binding. There is no need for any large
     softcore region, which you almost certainly do not want.
