[gmx-users] FEP vs PMF

Wed Nov 23 17:30:30 CET 2016

Thanks Billy,

If so, then, what do you call the what you get from only one leg of the
thermodynamic cycle? I mean calculation of only for example bound(complex)
state or unbound(ligand) state.

How the DDG should be calculated?

To which experiment quantity those PMF and FEP are comparable?

Thanks,
Cheers,
Alex
