gmx-lie(1) GROMACS Manual gmx-lie(1)NAMEgmx-lie - Estimate free energy from linear combinations
SYNOPSIS
gmx lie [-f [<.edr>]] [-o [<.xvg>]] [-nice <int>] [-b <time>]
[-e <time>] [-dt <time>] [-[no]w] [-xvg <enum>] [-Elj <real>]
[-Eqq <real>] [-Clj <real>] [-Cqq <real>] [-ligand <string>]
DESCRIPTION
gmx lie computes a free energy estimate based on an energy analysis
from nonbonded energies. One needs an energy file with the following
components: Coul-(A-B) LJ-SR (A-B) etc.
To utilize g_lie correctly, two simulations are required: one with the
molecule of interest bound to its receptor and one with the molecule in
water. Both need to utilize energygrps such that Coul-SR(A-B),
LJ-SR(A-B), etc. terms are written to the .edr file. Values from the
molecule-in-water simulation are necessary for supplying suitable val‐
ues for -Elj and -Eqq.
