[Question]: running MMPBSA by gromos forcefield toplogy and gromacs 2023.2 #543

My Question is...

Hi, I have ran a protein-peptide simulation by gromacs 2023.2 and gromos 43a1.ff forcefield for parametrization.

Now I can't run gmx_mmpbsa because I came across this Error: Not all bond parameters found.

So how can I calculate the binding free energy with my xtc trajectory files generated by this version of gromacs and gromos forcefield???

Thanks for your attention.

Unfortunately, GROMOS is not supported. We will try to make it work in new versions implementing other programs and methods for PB.

You can perform the MD using Amber or CHARMM ff and then use gmx_MMPBSA. You can also use the LIE-based approach to calculate BFE. I don't remember if g_mmpbsa or GMXPBSA can use GROMOS, but you can check if they do. Other methods require the calculation again and can require a lot of computational resources.

Thank you so much I will do all.
