visual folding

[Whitestar]

Hi guys.

I seem to remember a while ago someone said about a program that lets you see what the protein your folding looks like.

I've had a search on the forums and google but I can't find it.
Does anyone know what it is?

I ask because we have an open evening tomorrow, and I thought it would be a good idea to have it up on the computers in the science lab.

and look for subheading Visualization (spelt the silly way )


edit: many people say Jmol is pretty good, otherwise there's Electron Microscope Viewer that will let you move the molecule around though I've not used either for a few years I think

the bbc climate change model also has good images, but you should readly complete the module if you start it (F@H 1-5 days max on reasonable PC - BBC months and months)

Jmol is really very nice.

Cheers Rich. I thought it was J somthing, but i couldn't figure out what.

I might give electron microscope a go. That way parents can 'interact' with folding.

@shadowscotland

I don't run BBC CC anymore. I used to, but because of the time it took to crunch the units and after the mess up that they had, I put the machines back to folding.

I think Jmol may allow you to do the same - there's also the website where you can view a sample of pretty much every project ever run

Don't forget that Jmol is linked from FahMon for whatever the selected WU is.

Well that was unexpected. After seeing folding and EM in action, out biology teacher wants to use it for her A Level class!
