Hi all
I am doing an NVE simulation of a protein immersed in water, and I want
to keep track of the potential energy in the protein. Do you know how can I do
it?.
I tried saving the energy of the protein ( the protein as an energy group) in
the .edr file, but when I checked the file with g_energy, it does not give me
the option of potential energy only for the protein, it gives me the total
potential energy.
The potential energy of a subset of atoms is not stored in the .edr file; only
short-range nonbonded interactions can be decomposed by using energygrps. There
are a variety of reasons for doing so. The easiest way to get the quantity you
want is to use tpbconv create a .tpr file that contains only the protein and
then re-calculate energies using mdrun -rerun on the existing trajectory.
