Summary:

Liz's idea with mg works, and the baveraging can be done with
a simple XL spreadsheet, and baverage in ccp4i works as well.

However, my question was ill defined: Surface exposed is a
contemptuous term. I actually meant 'solvent exposed in crystal structure'.
This would mean that this value is not necessarily the same for 
same protein in different packing environments. 

This is not exactly trivial, and emphasizes the need for users of 
molecular models to understand and look at packing effects. Many
others and myself have pointed this out repeatedly, to limited avail,
I must admit......

With regards, br

Hi Bernhard,

You can use CCP4mg to select the residues with solvent accessibility greater
than whatever you choose for a cutoff.  To do this pick 'Property' from the
selection menu then in the new window set the property menu to 'residue SAS'

and enter your required range. Then write the selected atoms to a PDB file
(from the display object menu pick 'List selected atoms').  
>From there I'm afraid you'll have to use a script to read the pdb and
average the B values.

Liz
