Yep thanks so much Eric!
In my case the contacts have been started to be recognized both from
only after choosing the vdw cutoff > -4.0 A
and decreasing statistical (weight discard edge threshold) factor to 0.3
(here I am analyzing big trajectory consisted of 7 independent MD
trajectories for the same system merged together where both proteins
are present both in bound and unbound states during the progression of
simulation).
Eventually I obtained
LYS 25.A vdw SER 712.C 0.39322
CYS 14.A vdw TRP 1586.I 0.427119
HIS 33.A vdw ions 0.335593
HIS 33.A vdw LYS 1577.I 0.444068
LYS 27.A vdw TRP 1586.I 0.369492
GLU 838.C vdw PHE 46.A 0.444068
GLN 12.A vdw TRP 1586.I 0.501695
ASP 1580.I vdw LYS 7.A 0.318644
PHE 46.A vdw TRP 1586.I 0.491525
GLU 732.C vdw LYS 79.A 0.372881
PHE 46.A vdw solvent 0.501695
CYS 1584.I vdw HIS 26.A 0.616949
HIS 26.A vdw SER 712.C 0.423729
ASP 1580.I vdw LYS 8.A 0.305085
TYR 1542.I vdw VAL 11.A 0.311864
LYS 27.A vdw solvent 0.40678
THR 28.A vdw TYR 731.C 0.379661
PHE 46.A vdw TYR 1587.I 0.484746
Also may I ask within this output the first column should correspond
to first selection, right? here the contacts was defined as between
atoms from chain A which is the smaller protein and the rest of the
system consisted of atoms of receptor.
Thanks again!

> Well, if I were you I would go to a trajectory frame that I think should have contacts, and then bring up the Find Clashes/Contacts tool (in the Structure Analysis category of Tools) and play around with the criteria to see what yields contacts. You might also change the atoms to sphere mode (Actions->Atoms/Bonds->sphere) to see if they have any VDW overlap or are close. You might also measure some distances (control-click an atom, then control-shift-double-click a second atom and then pick “Show Distance” from the popup menu). Without actual access to your data, I can’t offer any more specific suggestions.
