I agree with David's comments here. Check out the 'Special Topic' section of the GMX manual. you can either do a pulling simulation or umbrella sampling (where the position and constrain the ligand on some rxn coordinate, in several simulation). The output of such simulatsions is a *.pdo file, which you can then run g_wham on to obtain a PMF. _______________________________________________ gmx-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/search before posting!
