SYNOPSIS

g_sas -f traj.xtc -s topol.tpr -o area.xvg -or resarea.xvg -oa atomarea.xvg -q connelly.pdb -n index.ndx -i surfat.itp -[no]h -nice int -b time -e time -dt time -[no]w -[no]xvgr -solsize real -ndots int -qmax real -[no]f_index -minarea real -[no]pbc -[no]prot -dgs real

DESCRIPTION

g_sas computes hydrophobic, hydrophilic and total solvent accessible surface area. As a side effect the Connolly surface can be generated as well in a pdb file where the nodes are represented as atoms and the vertices connecting the nearest nodes as CONECT records. The program will ask for a group for the surface calculation and a group for the output. The calculation group should always consists of all the non-solvent atoms in the system. The output group can be the whole or part of the calculation group. The area can be plotted per residue and atom as well (options -or and -oa ). In combination with the latter option an itp file can be generated (option -i ) which can be used to restrain surface atoms.

By default, periodic boundary conditions are taken into account, this can be turned off using the -pbc option.
