A new tool has been added to the Ensemble projects page. This page is based on the Molecule of the Month series from the Protein Data Bank. It demonstrates how information can be dynamically integrated from the Protein Data Bank – an online repository of structural information about large biological molecules – to create 2D and 3D renderings of molecular structures, using Exhibit and Jmol, a java-based 3D chemical structure viewer. The tool can also search the scientific literature via Pubmed for recent articles related to proteins of interest.
At present, it is best viewed using Firefox.
