Re: [AMBER] Issue with MMPBSA calculation

Hello there!

Do you mean the single quotes for the ligand mask -n :240-250 corresponded
to 10 amino acids? Actually, beforehand dealing with an organic ligand
residue, I had used it as -n :lig and it worked fine without quotes..

Also I have not noticed any issue on the step of the creation of stripped
parmtop since everything looks fine and there is no lipids in any of these
filles ( checked every parmtop ..)

The problem arises at the very first step of the computing dG using these
filles with mmgbsa.py script that produces temporary pdb and netcdf with
lipids ( which should be normally stripped ).

Finally I forgot to mention that I am dealing with membrane protein system
created according to the tutorial using lipids21 which devided each lipid
onto two residues (indicated in stripped mask along with :wat, ions etc ).

I am going to perform extensive benchmark tests and will report my progress.

Yours with thanks

Enrico Martinez
