Dear Justin, I would like to correct myself. Actually, the COM of the two groups - Protein and Ligand are about 5 nm away at the end of the pulling process. But the rear end of the ligand is just 0.6 nm away from the closest Amino acid of the Protein. Is that reasonable for the Binding affinity calculations?

There's not much to do aside from making sure you're using an efficient box, e.g. rhombic dodecahedron. A cube is inefficient. -Justin -- ================================================== Justin A.
