Subject: Dielectric constant for interior of proteins

A quick question -- what would be a good value of dielectric
constant for the interior of proteins? I will really appreciate
references for any published studies in this direction (AMBER
and in general).

Studies with other packages (e.g. GROMOS) report the use of
values ranging from 17 to 20.
