Volarea 1.2 – VMD Plug-in to Measure the Surface and calculate the Volume of Proteins

Volarea 1.2

:: DESCRIPTION

Volarea is a plug-in of the widely spread molecular graphics software Visual Molecular Dynamics (VMD), which allows the calculation of the volume as well as the surface area of any chemical structure. The surface area can be used also to map or calculate the exposed area of the structure to the solvent or to another chemical structure.
