Okay, I'll expound more on this. Yes, I want to do IBI on the 
polymer-polymer interaction only, while keeping water-water and 
polymer-water interactions fixed. I do a separate purely MARTINI run with 
both the polymer and water in the system. I obtain rdfs of W-W and 
polymer-W from this MARTINI run . I invert these potentials and provide 
them as a tabulated input to VOTCA. Does this sound too odd or reasonable?

I am combining a structure-based and a free-energy based approach here 
because when it comes to an aqueous system the free energy of solvation 
matters a great deal, which should be taken care by MARTINI. Also, MARTINI 
provides a 4:1 mapping for water, which is an appealing level of 
coarse-graining. 


Thanks for your time!
