#FIRSTGLANCE JMOL CODE#

I am the main author of ProteinExplorer.Org (PE), which was built upon MDL Chime beginning in 1998.

In May, 2007, I upgraded the Atlas so that every entry can be visualized with FirstGlance in Jmol as well as with PE. I am the author of an Atlas of Macromolecules, a component of Protein Explorer (PE). Previously (since it went into service in 2002) ConSurf's only visualization option was Protein Explorer. In August, 2006, we enabled ConSurf to display its results in FirstGlance in Jmol. ConSurf is a project of Nir Ben-Tal and coworkers at Tel-Aviv University, Israel. I am a co-author for visualization at the ConSurf Server, which automatically colors amino acids in a 3D protein structure by evolutionary conservation. It also has descriptions and links to all of my molecular visualization websites, including all the other items on this page. Beginning in July, 2007, it includes Jmol-based tutorials on DNA Structure, Hemoglobin, Lipid Bilayers and Channels, and Collagen (more coming soon). I am the main author of MolviZ.Org featuring molecular structure tutorials. Subsequently, I enthusiastically joined the project. Proteopedia, a wiki using Jmol, was created by Jaime Prilusky, Eran Hodis, and Joel Sussman. Help about each view or operation, including color keys, appears automatically, and is always in view. Convenience buttons show or hide ligands or water, toggle slab mode, zoom up/down, and change the background color.

polar regions (or cores, using slab mode), charges, and multiple models when present (NMR). Key views are shown via one-click links from an always-visible control panel: secondary structure, amino and carboxy termini, general composition, hydrophobic vs.

It is free for all users, and its source code is freely available for others to adapt. A hyperlink to FirstGlance can show any PDB file in one click. FirstGlance is designed to be useful both to novices and to specialists. I am the main author of FirstGlance in Jmol, a simple, browser-based tool for molecular visualization adopted by Nature, among others.
