Re: free energy,energy,entropy calculation for pushing ATP to active site of kinase!

With a quick browse of the tutorial, my understanding
is that:
the $T is defined as 0.6 in previous calculation,
which is still in effect.
10 is the total number of pulling trajectory, used for
calculating the average value of work.
