Chemscape Chime is a Netscape Navigator plug-in that allows scientists to view chemical information directly on an HTML page. Chime supports most of the popular structure display formats that scientists use including MDL Information Systems, Inc. Molfile and Rxnfile and many of the popular 3D display formats such as the Brookhaven Protein Databank (PDB) format (3D rendering and RasMol scripting code courtesy of Roger Sayle.)

For more information, or to download a free copy of Chime, see Chemscape's hompage at http://www.mdli.com/chemscape/chime/

 

RasMol is free software for looking at molecular structures. It runs on Windows or Macintosh/PPC computers (also unix). You must download a free PDB data file for each
molecule you wish to view. It is very fast: rotating a protein or DNA molecule shows its 3D structure.

To download, follow this link to http://www.umass.edu/microbio/rasmol/

The "Java-based Molecular Biology Workbench" version 1.1 was finalized after having processed through carefull peer reviews, and was accepted for publication in CABIOS. It consists of a bit more than a dozen of applets and javascripts developed by Luca Toldo, or contributed by other Authors. It can be run directly from any Java-compliant desktop or from the WWW. It is free to download.  If you would rather test it from the www, click here to start it !
