The sphere diameter for the electrostatics calculations is 38.2 Å. Following Neal et al. (1998), this diameter is 20% greater than that for an equivalent volume defined as density/molecular weight (Roth et al., 1996). The mean excluded volume from the MD simulations gives a diameter of 36.4 Å. The contribution from 7πa3/6 is 5.9 × 10−4 mol ml/g2. Other details as in Table 1.
