Dear nathalie,

from the top of my head, I use FLOOD from Upsala software factory: The program fills in water molecules in the cavity; you can specify a radius and start from a point in the pdb, like a side chain atom or you can put a dummy water molecule in the middle of your cavity and start flooding from there. I recommend inspecting the flooding result as it might find every little crack, which might not be what you want, or fill in other unwanted spaces. This flood pdb can be easily edited in Pymol to remove selected atoms and get the volume that you want. To measure this volume, well... I don't remember exactly, but I think VOIDOO can give you this result. Others might be able to chip in too.

Best of luck.
Vincent

thanks joana,

it is true that you can give a set of coordinates to Caver, but to my knowledge, Caver look for tunnels only.

It does not seem to compute the volume of surface pockets or internal cavities.

Hi Nathalie,

I think Caver tools can do that: https://caver.cz/index.php?sid=133

Best wishes

Hi everybody,

I am aware of programs which compute the volume of cavities and pockets.

However, I am looking for a program which can compute the volume around a given point (given by its coordinates), and return also the information about if it is an open surface pocket or an internal cavity.

Thanks a lot

Nathalie
