Functionality


  • Molecular File formats:

    • BA - BioAdviser document - a native BioAdviser file format. Binary, proprietary format.

    • PDB, ENT - Brookhaven Protein Data Bank file format (read/write).

    • MOL - MDL molecular file format (read/write).

    • HIN - HyperChem data file (read only). HyperChem is trademark of HyperCube, Inc.

    • XYZ - A simple Cartesian molecular file format (read/write).

    • DAT - MOPAC Z-matrix files (read/write). MOPAC Cartesian format is available for writing.

    • ARC - MOPAC ARC (archive) file (read only).

    • WRL - VRML files (write only).

    • PAR - BioAdviser repository files. Facilitates the modification of program repository definitions.

  • BioAdviser view types:

    • Fast 3D structure (simplified molecular rendering mode targeting very large molecules).

    • 3D structure (basic, very rich 3D molecular rendering mode).

    • AminoAcid sequences (schematic view of aminoacid chains).

    • Properties (protein properties plots: Hydropathic index, Hydrophobicity, Karpuls & Schulz, Emini, Hopp & Woods, Kyte & Doolittle Robson & Garnier , Dipole).

    • Ramachandran plot.

    • PDB Edit (this view facilitates manual editing in the PDB format).

  • Styles for 3D structure view type:

    • For atoms and bonds:

      • Wire Frame.

      • Ball & Stick.

      • Cylinders.

      • Space Filling.

      • Hydrogens on/off.

    • For Proteins:

      • Ribbon Wires for C atoms.

      • Ribbon Lines.

      • Flat Ribbons.

      • Solid Ribbons.

      • Tubby Ribbons.

      • Secondary Structure Motifs.

      • Backbone only.

      • SideChains on/off.

    • For DNA:

      • DNA backbone.

      • DNA Rings.

      • DNA Ladder.

  • Color schemes for atoms and bonds:

    • Default color scheme (Scheme1) - characterized by black carbon atoms.

    • Alternate color scheme (Scheme 2) - characterized by white carbon atoms.

    • DNA Rings.

    • DNA Ladder.

  • Molecular Editor features:

    • Copy & Paste entire molecular system or selected part.

    • Automatic Hydrogen atoms creation.

    • Move molecules, Rotate Side Chain, Change T-Angle, Mutate.

    • Build Protein (from Amino Acids building blocks).

    • Change Atom type.

    • Delete Atom.

    • Clipping planes, clipping spheres.

  • Selections:

    • Multiple selection levels: Atoms, Residues, Molecules, Labels.

    • Select All, Invert Selection operations.

    • Narrowing the scope of most operations to selected objects.

  • Computations:

    • Preparation of MOPAC input file.

    • Running MOPAC as a separate process.

    • Analysis of MOPAC calculations results.
