| Last Update: 01-09-2002 |
| Description: Dowser program surveys the structure of a protein molecule to locate internal cavities and assess the hydrophilicity of these cavities in terms of the energy of interaction of a water molecule with the surrounding atoms. Experience has shown that cavities with interaction energies below -12 kcal/mol tend to be filled, and cavities for which the energy is greater than that threshold, tend to be empty. |
