GEPOL: An improved description of molecular surfaces. III. A new algorithm for the computation of a solvent‐excluding surface
Abstract
To understand and calculate the interactions of a solute with a solvent, a good method of computing the molecular surface is needed. Three kinds of surfaces may be used: the van der Waals Surface, the Accessible Surface, and the Molecular Surface. The latter is redefined in this article as the Solvent‐Excluding Surface. The new algorithm for computing the Solvent‐Excluding Surface included in the GEPOL93 program is described. GEPOL93 follows the same concept as former versions of GEPOL but with a full new algorithm. Thus, it computes the Solvent‐Excluding Surface by filling the spaces not accessible to the solvent with a set of new spheres. The computation is controlled by three parameters: the number of triangles per sphere, controlled by NDIV; the maximum overlap among the new spheres (OFAC); and the size of the smallest sphere that can be created (RMIN). The changes introduced for the computation of the ESURF make GEPOL93 not just a new version but a new program. An estimation is made of the error in the area and volume obtained in the function of the parameters. © 1994 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
