		Hello,


	I'm looking for a program that would allow me to calculate the
solvent-accessible surfaces of nucleic acids, in a similar way to what
was done by Charles J. Alden & Sung-Hou Kim (J. Mol Biol., 1979, 132, 
411-434). If possible, this program should also permit to measure the
group type exposures. The two authors cited above wrote a program to 
do such calculations, but I do not know if it's available. Maybe, some
other programs exist. A program based on the Shrake and Rupley algorithm 
would be prefered. 
	I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks.

bye,
