A DAMEMB-generated initial search volume for multiphase modelling of membrane proteins with MONSA. The protein phase, ρ1 (cyan), is defined within a spherical core region, located at the origin of the search volume. The core volume is surrounded by two distinct phases, ρ2 and ρ3, corresponding to the tail (pink) and head group (yellow) regions of a detergent molecule. The thickness of each phase, as well as that of the boundary region Δd, may be specified by the user. |
