Hello All,

I am trying to do MMPBSA. My system is a complex of protein and DNA
system with an incoming nucleotide. I want to see the binding affinity
of nucleotide with DNA template in wild type and mutant protein-DNA
system. My system has 1-347 amino acids, 348-349 ions and 350-377 DNA
(both template and complementary ssDNA) and 378 as the incoming
nucleotide. The system parameter file is nowation.prmtop which doesn't
have water and Na+ ions. The corresponding trajectory is comp.nc. I
tried to generate the complex, receptor and ligand .prmtop file using
parmed. For complex I used:

cp nowation.prmtop complex.prmtop

For ligand

Parmed nowation.prmtop

Strip ! (:378)

Outparm ligand.prmtop

For Receptor

Parmed nowation.prmtop

Strip :'348-349, 378'

Outparm receptor.prmtop

The trajectory I am using the original trajectory stripped off water and
ions.

When I am trying to run the MMPBSA job,

It is showing complex.prmtom != receptor.prmtop + ligand.prmtop.

Kindly please suggest where am I going wrong?

Thank you

Regards

Priyasha
