Dear Justin, Thanks for the reply.
I have tried that already. I stripped out the protein trajectory using trjconv, created an appropriate .tpr file using tpbconv (I am using GROMACS 4.5.6), and recalculated energy using mdrun -rerun. But does the resulting .edr file include only the inherent energy of the protein or does it have information of the interaction energies with the solvent as well? That precisely is the point I am confused about. I tried this with a protein in water system and also simulated a dry protein separately to compare. The energies were way to different from each other. Does it mean that the solvent-protein interaction energies are also involved?
