In Proteopedia's [[SAT|Molecular Scene Authoring Tools]] (SAT), you can enter these commands in the slot below the molecule. There will be a delay (about 20 sec on my computer) while JSmol calculates the surfacedistance for each atom. However, once the scene is saved as a green link, the colors are saved and displayed without re-calculation when the green link is clicked.

The atom property surfacedistance in Jmol is each atom's distance from the surface of the macromolecule. The units of surfacedistance are Ångstroms. You can select atoms by distance from the surface, and report the average, minimum, or maximum surfacedistance of a group of atoms. Atoms, cavity/pocket/tunnel isosurfaces, and other objects can be colored by distance from the surface.

Notes

  1. For the list of Jmol's color schemes, look for "set property colorscheme" under set (misc) in the command documentation.
