Hi Everyone, I want to calculate potential energy between 2 coils of the same protein. I made 2 energy groups one for each coil and use gmx energy and got the following energy terms: Energy Average Err.Est.

Does this (Coul-SR) includes
It's the short-range interaction energy. That may or may not reflect something that has any physical meaning.
hydrogen bond energy also? If not then how can I calculate it? *
Hydrogen bonds are primarily electrostatic in nature. There's no discrete energy term for it, but it's included in what you've calculated.
*I used gmx hbond -temp 298 (298 is the temperature) after selecting groups I got following result:*Hydrogen bond thermodynamics at T = 298 K Fitting parameters chi^2 = 0.000649398 Q = 0 -------------------------------------------------- Type Rate (1/ps) Time (ps) DG (kJ/mol) Chi^2 Forward 0.022 45.795 14.000 0.000649398 Backward -0.063 -15.875 -666.000 One-way 0.043 23.120 12.306 Integral -0.039 -25.489 -666.000 Relaxation 0.052 19.113 11.835 *Can we calculate hydrogen bond energy from this? If not then what these terms are. *
I suggest you read the reference to the method you're trying to use before using it. -Justin
