Given a protein structure from the PDB, I would like to generate NS spheres of radius Rs which cover totally the protein surface. Given RS there, NS is the maximum number of spheres so they do not overlap. I would need the coordinates of the center of each sphere.

Does anybody know if this has been implemented in some method / program? Or how to do it with scripting.

Thanks
