This message is to announce the launching of SUGAR-PIE, a new web application designed for the easy mapping of lipid bilayers from coarse grain to atomistic resolution. The users only need to upload a coarse grain PDB or GRO file with a lipid bilayer and will get back an atomistic PDB file. It is also possible to introduce a mixture of lipids (only DPPC and POPC are currently available) and even a protein embedded or interacting with the bilayer. If a protein is included in the system you should also upload an atomistic PDB file for it.<BR>
<BR>
The application has been tested with quite standard systems since the number and variety of coarse grain structures we have available is limited. We hope the range of systems that the current version of SUGAR-PIE is able to map back is useful for many GROMACS users. Of course we would appreciate any comment and suggestion.<BR>
<BR>
We encourage you to visit our web site for more information as well as to test SUGAR-PIE at <A HREF="http://smmb.usc.es/sugarpie/sugarpie.php">http://smmb.usc.es/sugarpie/sugarpie.php</A><BR>

Yours sincerely,<BR>
