Pode ser considerada uma interface gráfica de usuário construída sobre o Ball (Biochemical Algorithms Library, Biblioteca de Algoritmos Bioquímicos), com foco nas demandas mais comuns de químicos proteicos e biofísicos em particular. Foi desenvolvido nos grupos Hans-Peter Lenhof (Universidade Saarland, Saarbruecken, Alemanha) e Oliver Kohlbacher (Universidade de Tübingen, Alemanha). O Ball é uma infraestrutura em C++ especificamente projetada para desenvolvimento rápido de programas de modelagem molecular e Biologia molecular computacional. Fornece um conjunto amplo de estruturas de dados e classes para Mecânica molecular, métodos avançados de solvatação, comparação e análise de estruturas proteicas, importação/exportação de arquivos e visualização.

A Python library that provides parsers for computational chemistry log files. It also provides a platform to implement algorithms in a package-independent manner.

This package contains helper scripts for end users.

If you are looking for the unit tests and data files managed by cclib, they are distributed separately as in non-free package cclib-data.

Gabedit is a graphical user interface to computational chemistry packages like:

  • MPQC
  • GAMESS-US
  • Gaussian
  • Molcas
  • Molpro
  • Q-Chem

These Ab Initio software packages might run locally or on a remote server (supporting FTP, RSH and SSH). Gabedit can display a variety of calculation results including most major molecular file formats. The advanced "Molecule Builder" allows one to rapidly sketch in molecules and examine them in 3D. Graphics can further be exported to various formats, including animations.

slurm-wlm-torque and gridengine-client are workload managers which provide wrappers for PBS commands. Gabedit also allows one to configure it for any other workload manager.

Garlic is written for the investigation of membrane proteins. It may be used to visualize other proteins, as well as some geometric objects. This version of garlic recognizes PDB format version 2.1. Garlic may also be used to analyze protein sequences.

It only depends on the X libraries, no other libraries are needed.

Features include:

  • The slab position and thickness are visible in a small window.
  • Atomic bonds as well as atoms are treated as independent drawable objects.
  • The atomic and bond colors depend on position. Five mapping modes are available (as for slab).
  • Capable to display stereo image.
  • Capable to display other geometric objects, like membrane.
  • Atomic information is available for atom covered by the mouse pointer. No click required, just move the mouse pointer over the structure!
  • Capable to load more than one structure.
  • Capable to draw Ramachandran plot, helical wheel, Venn diagram, averaged hydrophobicity and hydrophobic moment plot.
  • The command prompt is available at the bottom of the main window. It is able to display one error message and one command string.

  • A simple molecular creation and manipulation tool
  • A dialogue for creating starting configurations for molecular dynamics simulations
  • Assorted tools for visualization (geometry information, region highlighting, etc.)
  • Animation of BIOSYM files (also rendered animations, see below)

GDIS also allows you to perform the following functions through other packages:

QuteMol é um sistema visualizador molecular interativo de alta-qualidade. Ele explora a capacidade atual da GPU através de sombreamento OpenGL para oferecer uma variedade de efeitos visuais inovadores. As técnicas de visualização do QuteMol visam clareza e uma compreensão mais fácil da forma (shape) 3D e estrutura de moléculas grandes ou proteínas complexas.

Qutemol usa técnicas avançadas do OpenGL e pode não funcionar corretamente com todas as placas de vídeos e drivers.

Recursos inclusos no QuteMol:

  • Oclusão de ambiente em tempo real
  • Melhoria da silhueta ciente da profundidade
  • Modos de visualização de modelos de bolas e varetas, preenchimento de espaço (space-filling) e alcaçuz (liquorice)

  • Foto de tela (snapshot) de alta resolução suavizados para criação de publicações renderizadas com qualidade

  • Geração automática de gifs animados de moléculas girando para animações de páginas web

RasMol is a molecular graphics program intended for the visualisation of proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules. The program is aimed at display, teaching and generation of publication quality images.

The program reads in a molecule coordinate file and interactively displays the molecule on the screen in a variety of colour schemes and molecule representations. Currently available representations include depth-cued wireframes, 'Dreiding' sticks, spacefilling (CPK) spheres, ball and stick, solid and strand biomolecular ribbons, atom labels and dot surfaces.

Supported input file formats include Protein Data Bank (PDB), Tripos Associates' Alchemy and Sybyl Mol2 formats, Molecular Design Limited's (MDL) Mol file format, Minnesota Supercomputer Center's (MSC) XYZ (XMol) format, CHARMm format, CIF format and mmCIF format files.

This package installs two versions of RasMol, rasmol-gtk has a modern GTK-based user interface and rasmol-classic is the version with the old Xlib GUI.

The package is enhanced by the following packages: rasmol-doc

Raster3D is a set of tools for generating high quality raster images of proteins or other molecules. The core program renders spheres, triangles, cylinders, and quadric surfaces with specular highlighting, Phong shading, and shadowing. It uses an efficient software Z-buffer algorithm which is independent of any graphics hardware. Ancillary programs process atomic coordinates from PDB files into rendering descriptions for pictures composed of ribbons, space-filling atoms, bonds, ball+stick, etc. Raster3D can also be used to render pictures composed in other programs such as Molscript in glorious 3D with highlights, shadowing, etc. Output is to pixel image files with 24 bits of color information per pixel.

ShelXle combines an editor with syntax highlighting for the SHELXL-associated .ins (input) and .res (output) files with an interactive graphical display for visualization of a three-dimensional structure including the electron density (Fo) and difference density (Fo-Fc) maps.

V_Sim visualizes atomic structures such as crystals, grain boundaries, molecules and so on (either in binary format, or in plain text format).

The rendering is done in pseudo-3D with spheres (atoms) or arrows (spins). The user can interact through many functions to choose the view, set the bindings, draw cutting planes, compute surfaces from scalar fields, duplicate nodes, measure geometry... Moreover V_Sim allows one to export the view as images in PNG, JPG, PDF (bitmap), SVG (scheme) and other formats. Some tools are also available to colorize atoms from data values or to animate on screen many position files.

Viewmol is able to graphically aid in the generation of molecular structures for computations and to visualize their results.

At present Viewmol includes input filters for Discover, DMol3, Gamess, Gaussian 9x/03, Gulp, Mopac, PQS, Turbomole, and Vamp outputs as well as for PDB files. Structures can be saved as Accelrys' car-files, MDL files, and Turbomole coordinate files. Viewmol can generate input files for Gaussian 9x/03. Viewmol's file format has been added to OpenBabel so that OpenBabel can serve as an input as well as an output filter for coordinates.

XCrySDen é um programa de visualização de estrutura molecular e cristalina que tem o objetivo de exibir isosuperfícies e contornos, que podem ser sobrepostos em estruturas cristalinas e interativamente rotacionadas e manipuladas. Ele pode ser executado na maioria das plataformas UNIX sem quaisquer requisitos especiais de hardware.

XCrySDen permite a captura em tempo real de exibição. Vários codificadores de filme são suportados, em particular são necessários para conversão de GIF animado (imagemagick), gifsicle ou whirlgif. É necessário para AVI/MPEG mencoder ou ppmtompeg (netpbm). Precisa estar presente para a janela de *dumps", imagemagick ou xwd (x11-apps).
