Dear Jianghai,
there is a procedure in the popular program GRASP that allows you to
calculate the buried surface area and, of course, to have a graphical
rapresentation. I find it very usefull, expecially for making pictures. 
I hope It helps

Hi, all,

Does anybody know which program can calculate the surface 
contact among those molecules packed in the lattice after I 
give it the pdb file? In my case, I want to calculate the  
contact surface in one molecule to see how it contact with all 
the molecules around it. And make some pictures afterward.

Thank you very much.
