Table 7.

Convergence of simulated free energy versus accuracy: comparison of MMPBSA results using converged free energies versus those using just the first nanosecond. All calculations were conducted with the DEN surface (sasopt=2) and optimized radius set (radiopt=1) as in Table 5 for efficiency. The RMSD’s of ΔΔG are in kcal/mol. See Figure 3 for the free energy convergence analysis.
