Well, this pqr file was generated by mmpbsa skript, by its subroutine
generate_pqr. Please see it below. I didn't change it. The last coloumn is
not diameters but Bondi radii + 1.4A. The probe radii used with this file is
0.0A. See the first comment of the generate_pqr. So I think that pqr file is
OK. May be I miss something, so please correct me...

regards, Katya
