FEP is a poorly defined term. It can either mean 1) making small changes 'alchemical' changes in the molecules and computing the free energies by any method (BAR, TI, etc), or 2) it can mean specifically computing the free energies by exponentially averaging the potential energy differences.

Hi, I am trying to run some simulations in attempts to calculate binding free energy between ligands and a protein using the FEP method, but until now I did not have any success. I have been looking for bibliography over this subject, but, as you may know, there aren't many works about FEP.

I don't really know, if this may solve your problem, but what I want to suggest is, not using PME for the simulation. I don't know, how other longerange-methods behave while changing the total charge of the system, PME won't work (as far, as I know). Concerning your way, how to perturb the

Hi I want to calculate the change in free energy (electrostatic contribution only) when introducing a charge in a certain site of a protein using a single step FEP. Should this be done with charging an inserted virtual site (a dummy atom) or a protein atom (e.g. Ca)? I noticed that in the

Hi all Because the fact of handling vdw and electrostatics with the same values was discussed before, I won't go into much detail about what Berk and David M. wrote. I changed the code to apply different alpha values for vdw and electrostatics. Now I am able to e.g. calculate vdw with an

Hi David Thank you for the detailed answer. It sounds reasonable. :) For sure it's the best way to make the calculations separatly and sum up the energies at the end. You mentioned, that, in the case of splitting, the density of snapshot samplings at lambda=0,1 can be lower. So I guess, one

Mark, I am rather nervous about doing FEP/TI for disappearing charged molecules, as it is not at all clear to me that it is possible do this correctly with current methods. Perhaps someone else may be able to comment more, but at least with long range electrostatics (PME), systems are required
