a

Units in Debyes. The 26 representative residues of the training set are listed in Table S4 of the Supporting Information.

b

Conformational letter codes. Each code represents the backbone expressed by a capital letter depending on its torsion angles Ф and ψ, and two side-chain torsion angles χ1 and χ2. See the text for definition of torsion angles.38,39

c

Dipole moments calculated directly at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)//HF/6-31G(d,p) level.

d

Dipole moments calculated from atomic charges obtained at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)//HF/6-31G(d,p) level.

e

Absolute differences between μB3LYP* and μB3LYP values.

f

Dipole moments calculated by the EPAC method.

g

Absolute differences between μEPAC and μB3LYP values.

h

Dipole moments calculated by the GDAC method of Cho et al.23

i

Absolute differences between μGDAC and μB3LYP values.

j

Pro with the trans prolyl peptide bond and the down puckering.

k

His(δ) and His(ε) are isomers of the His residue depending on its protonation at Nδ and Nε, respectively.

l

Initial atomic charges were obtained by a trial-and-error procedure starting from the corresponding values in ref 23 to reproduce the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) atomic charges for only these residues; see Figure S1 of the Supporting Information.

m

Mean values over all residues.

n

Rms deviations over all residues.
