Thank you for the reply
You meant , to tweak the emtol doesn't have noticable affects on the 
conformational enssemble generated by MD?

Precisely what I said, yes.

Dear GMX users
I used CHARMM36 all atom force field to generate .top and .gro files for my 
complex composed of a receptor protein and a ligand with 2 phosphotyrosine 
residues, then ran a md simulation on it and then used g_mmpbsa to calculate 
the binding free energy by pdies ( 2 and 4) but got + 426 and +527 kjol/mol, 
respectively. While, I calculated binding energy before for many other 
complexes without any phosphate groups using OPLS all atom force field and pdie 
= 2 and obtained minus energy. But this time , I dont know why I got positive 
binding energy? Is it because of charmm36 all atom force field , the phosphate 
groups or it is needed to be energy minimized under more restriction situations?
I am checking different factors to understand its reason, so I wanted to know , 
would it be ok if I energy minimize the complex with more restriction 
situations ? for example by specifying emtol under 1000 kj/mol/nm , like 800 ? 
I think the positive binding energy might be because of the complex didnt 
minimized well. however I checked the em.log file and saw it was minimized well:

Steepest Descents converged to Fmax < 1000 in 241 steps
Potential Energy  = -6.5047744e+05
Maximum force     =  9.8285083e+02 on atom 3335
Norm of force     =  3.6905827e+01
Is there anyone can advice me in energy minimization with emtol 800?
The purpose of energy minimization is to establish a reasonable starting
point for your simulation. Tweaks to emtol will have little to no
noticeable bearing on the conformational ensemble generated by MD.
