Hello all,
I am trying to implement a NAMD version of the separated topologies
method from "Separated topologies—A method for relative binding free
energy calculations using orientational restraints" by Gabriel J.
Rocklin, David L. Mobley, and Ken A. Dill.
However, this requires coupling the VDW of a ligand (B) to a binding
site where another ligand (A) is present and fully coupled throughout
the process. To achieve this, interactions between A and B must be
switched off, which can be achieved by setting 1 and -1 flags in the
alchFile.
However, if this is the case then the calculation will couple B whilst
uncoupling A, which is not what is needed. Is there a way to switch
off interactions between A and B, whilst coupling (or decoupling) only
one of them?
Thanks very much,
Dave
