Dear Steve,
I guess you mean by PEG polyethylenglycol?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene_glycol
What is the conformation used in charge derivation for PEG?
Instead of a whole molecule approach, you could use the building block
approach implemented in R.E.D. Server and polymerize the elementary
building block.
Polymerization of PEG is described in R.E.DD.B.:
See
