Dear all, I am trying to reproduce the Barnase-Barstar binding energy published in 2010 in Biopolymers entitled "Downhill Binding Energy Surface of the Barnase–Barstar Complex" by using Umbrella sampling introduced in the Gromacs tutorial page http://www.bevanlab.biochem.vt.edu/Pages/Personal/justin/gmx-tutorials/umbrella/index.html
I follow the parameter setup found in the paper but the binding energy is around 210 KJoul instead of 40 KJoul. That's a big difference. Since the affinity constant of Barnase-Barstar is known, this test of reproduction is important in proving Umbrella Sampling can be used to estimate the binding energy. Does anybody have any suggestion ? Thanks a lot for your time, Paris @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Paris Tzou Department of Bioscience and Biotechnology National Taiwan Ocean University 2, Pei-Ning Road, Keelung, Taiwan 20224, R. O. C.
