Re: [AMBER] MMPBSA Pairwise per-residue error

You should check the *ligand.mdout files created by MMPBSA.py. It appears there is a problem with your simulation. They very end of the log message says that a VDWAAL energy has a value of *******, meaning there is at least one frame where the energy of the ligand is too high for the number of digits available to print the energy in the output file. This is usually caused by two atoms that are overlapping or near overlapping in the analyzed frames. If you check the ligand mdout files and search for the “*******” characters, then you should be able to narrow down the problematic frame number(s) and overlapping residues since you’re also running decomp.

Hope that helps.

I’ve changed several options and nothing is working for me. I hope you can help me how to handle this error. The system is protein complex with DNA and RNA.
