[PyMOL] Re: electrostatic potential of nucleic acids possible in pyMOL?

[William S. <wg...@ch...>]

Yes.  In fact I just added a description of how to do this in the PyMol
Wiki.

http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/APBS

The apbs plugin will work , but you should use pdb2pqr to generate the
nucleic acid pqr file externally, and then read it in.

Then it works the same as for proteins.

HTH,
