MASKER

:: DESCRIPTION

MASKER is a program for calculating solvent accessible surface (SAS)  solvent excluded surface (SES) and solvation energy. Three program that use the MASKER module are included in this package:

pdbmask — calculates the solvent excluded surface of atoms in PDB format
maskercm — calculates the pairwise buried surface of residues in a protein
voidmask — finds the locations of buried empty spaces with in a protein, or any molecule.
