Axiom Discovery is making its Molecule
Viewer (Lite Edition) available as a free
download. Molecule Viewer is a Windows application that works
in a similar way to the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer that is part of
the Microsoft Windows operating system.
Molecule Viewer allows users to
view molecular structures stored in a wide variety of file formats
including Brookhaven PDB, Alchemy, MDL, Gaussian, MOPAC, etc by simply
right-clicking on the file in Windows Explorer and selecting the
"Preview" command.
Features include:
- view structures in traditional
renderings such as ball and stick
- view proteins as ribbons, cartoons,
barrels and tubes
- view solvent accessible surfaces
- view molecular orbitals and iso-density
surfaces saved in Axiom Discovery workspace files
- animation of normal modes (one
randomly selected)
- supports many common file formats
include PDB
- print images direct to a printer
- edit structures in
IDEaTM
and Molecular ExplorerTM
(requires one of these to be installed)
- OpenGL based rendering with full control over how the image is
rendered including background colors and gradients, projection,
anti-aliasing, etc.
The advanced version of the Molecule Viewer application provides
additional features such as:
- visualization of electronic
structure information in Gaussian files, MOPAC files, Games-US files,
etc.
- Molecular orbitals, iso-density and
iso-potential surfaces can be viewed without requiring Gaussian or
MOPAC
- advanced property mapped surfaces
- contact and Connolly surfaces in
addition to solvent accessible surfaces
- visualization of dipole moments and
atomic charges for both ground state and excited states
- animation of all normal modes and
reaction paths
- many more visualization features
found in high-end molecular modeling packages
