Table 4.

Estimates of the binding free energy ΔG° (kcal/mol) using the PBSA model. First, the binding PMF B(rR) is estimated with the dominant state approximation (min {Ψ(rR)}) or based on Eq. 23, using Hamiltonian replica exchange for Bcpl (HREX). Then, ΔG^ is from the dominant state approximation (min{B^(rR)}) or based on Eq. 22 (EXP). The bottom rows show the correlation coefficient (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE, Eq. 25) with respect to isothermal titration calorimetry experiments (ITC) and mining minima calculations (Gilson) from Moghaddam et al.,32 and the fourth column.
