        Hi,

        I am using Rosetta protocol to determine ddG changes on point mutations in a peptide bound to a protein complex. I first used FastRelax to remove any steric clashes in the protein structure and then ran the ddG protocol to generate ~1000 structures till there is no change in ddG values. I now want to build a correlation plot between the Rosetta ddG values and experimental calculations.

        My question is what ddG value should I consider for my calculations. I am presently using the min ddG value presently. Should I consider the value at which it is converging or the average ddG of ~1000 structures?

        Thank you.

          Hi Nikita,

          The most recent approach for ddG calculations can be found here: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.1021/acs.jpcb.7b11367, but it differs a bit from your current approach, so for your current analysis I would try to emulate https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/prot.22921

          Best,

          Jeliazko
