Hi Frank,
You are correct, Bondi radii are not present for those two atom types.
I would suggest you use the PBSA program in Amber to perform the molecular
surface calculation. With this, you will be able to use the radii from
your prmtop file.
# PROC - Determines which method is used for solving the PB equation.
# If PROC = 1, the delphi program is applied. If PROC = 2,
# the pbsa program of the AMBER suite is used.
# RADIOPT - Option to set up atomic cavity radii for molecular surface
# calculation and dielectric assignment. A value of 0 uses the cavity
# radii from the prmtop file. A value of 1 sets up optimized cavity
# radii at the pbsa initialization phase. The latter radii are
# optimized for model compounds of proteins only; use caution when
# applying these radii to nucleic acids.
#
If you would like to use the Delphi program to the
molsurf calculation, you will need to put them in the (Delphi) size file.
Hope this helps.
Rhonda
