Re: [AMBER] radius of K+ ions

Hi,

I have seen but the information given there is :

  Na *1.8680* 0.00277 Na+ Aqvist JPC 1990,94,8021.
(adapted)
  K 2.6580 0.000328 K+ Aqvist JPC 1990,94,8021.
(adapted)

which does not match with that given in the mm_pbsa_calceneent.pm :

  "Na+" => *1.200* + 1.400,



I did a google search and found that :

Radius of Na+ = 1.16 A
Radius of K+ = 1.52 A

So shall I add *1.520* as the radius of K+ ion in the
mm_pbsa_calceneent.pmfile? Shall I be correct in doing so?

Thanks a lot..
Asfa.
