Tutorials: The "Using MSMS" tutorial details how to use the program and gives a simple example.

See how to render the surface as a "surface dataset" in Dino.

Notes: The programs pdb_to_xyzr and pdb_to_xyzrn are companion programs that generate MSMS input from standard PDB files. These programs require the file /sb/apps/msms/atmtypenumbers to map atom names into Connolly numeric codes and atomic radii.
