I was going to use g_sas for that. But, I observe that this tool gets the vanderwal radii from vdwradii.dat file. But, since the particles in the martini lipids are united-atom types, I was wondering what will be a reasonable radius to use for hydrophobic tail particles of a martini lipid ?</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">Thanks</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">Sanku </div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; position: fixed; "></div></div><br>--<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>gmx-users mailing list <a href="mailto:gmx-users@gromacs.org">gmx-users@gromacs.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users">http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users</a><br>Please search the archive at<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.gromacs.org/search">http://www.gromacs.org/search</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>before posting!<br>Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.
