I'm trying to examine electrostatics for an RNA molecule. I've calculated an electrostatics map using Qnifft (which outputs the map as a .phi file). I can read the .phi file into PyMol and color my molecular surface using the map. What I'm hoping to do is quantitatively determine the potential at a given spot on the surface. In Spock (http://quorum.tamu.edu/) , I can click on a spot on the surface and it will print out a the potential at that spot. Is there any similar ability within PyMol? Alternatively, is there any way to determine the surface potential for a specified atom? I'm hoping to do this in PyMol because Spock can only read in maps up to 129x129x129 units in size, and PyMol seems to handle the largest maps that Qnifft can generate. I did a search through the list archives and found a few questions that related to electrostatics, but didn't find anything to help me with this issue.
