CCP4MG can also generate electrostatic surfaces, which can then be rendered and exported for publication. As a caveat, the last time I looked I could not find anything in the documentation that explained how they were calculated, so I don't know how they compare to the APBS generated ones.

Hi Joel,

with Coot 0.8, revision 5348, I could generate and display the surface
for insulin. I would take a screenshot of it, unless Paul has a
different idea?

You said you could generate the ESP - do you mean you can see it like
in the screenshot, or do you not see anything at all?

Best,
Tim

 Hi Tim,

 You have sparked my interest in Coot ESP. Do you know of a link to
 explain how to display/export it? I can generate it but nothing
 happens (other than the protein disappearing

 Cheers

 Joel

 Dear abhishek,

 one work-around is to split the PDB-file into four different
 PDB-files, one per chain, and concatenate the results back
 together.

 Alternatively you can try Coot to calculate the ESP.

 Bst, Tim

 Dear All,

 I wish to generate electrostatics surface cartoon for  a protein,
  which is a tetramer.

 I am using pdb to pqr server
 (http://nbcr-222.ucsd.edu/pdb2pqr_1.8/) to generate .pqr files as
 part of this process.

 I find that server is able to genetrate .pqr file contents, only
 when input pdb file contains a single chain (monomer), it is
 failing to do the same when I give it tetramer pdb co-ordinates,
 why is that ? and how can I generate a .pqr file for
 teramer...what other options do I have ?

 many thanks in adavnce

 abhishek
