The most common Amber energy functions (PME for periodic systems, GB
for non-periodic, implict solvent systems) are not pair-wise decomposable:
that is, the energy cannot be broken down into residues or atoms. (Even
for simpler, pairwise, potentials, each interaction depends on two or more
atoms, so some choices must be made to divide this into contributions from
atoms.)
In Amber, you can use mmpbsa to get an *approximate* (and somewhat arbitrary)
breakdown. But be sure that this is what you really want.
...good luck...dac
