Hi Mr. Paul.
It might not have been clear in my previous mail. Sorry for the
inconvenience.

I have simulated a GPCR membrane protein in POPC system. I need to
calculate the pore size in the protein structure and not in the lipid
bilayer. Precisely i am intended to calculate the water permeation through
the pathway in protein structure. So I want to measure the pore radius of
the protein structure and permeation of water through the pathway.

Thank you
