Re: solvent accessibility

[Oliver Hucke <Oliver.Hucke -8 at 8- physchem.uni-freiburg.de>]

Dear Pedro,
 the command WRITE_DATA of the program MODELLER calculates solvent
 accessible surface areas for the complete amino acid, for the polar and
 the apolar parts of the side chain, the complete side chain and the main
 chain region of each residue in a pdb file. It also calculates the
 solvent accessible surface area of each atom and prints it to a modified
 pdb file.
 Hope this helps.
 Best,
 Oliver
