Hi,

if your apbs calculated binding energy significantly changes with the grid
size that suggests that your grid is not sufficiently large. In the apbs
input you provided below your grid spacing is 1A which is way too coarse
for electrostatic energy calculation. You will need to increase your grid
so the spacing is less than 0.5A.

Best,

Robert

So, now I thinks there may be some problem on my calculation. So I want to know, how amber do this job(to adjust the grid-box for different kind of  complex with different size)?
