CueMol

CueMol is a computer program for the macromolecular structure visualization (CueMol was formerly called "Que"). CueMol aims to visualize the crystallographic models of macromolecules with the user-friendly interfaces. Currently supported files are molecular coordinates (PDB format), electron density (CCP4, CNS , and BRIX formats), MSMS surface data, and APBS electrostatic potential map.

Powered by Mozilla XULRunner, the application framework of Firefox and Thunderbird (and other mozilla-based application as well), CueMol2 now runs under both Windows and MacOS X in a similar GUI appearance. Linux version is also planned.

Main functions

  • Display proteins and nucleic acids
    Supported input format is PDB (molecular coordinates).
    • simple stick model
    • main-chain trace (Calpha backbone, phosphate backbone, ...)
    • ball-and-stick model
    • CPK model
  • Functions as a molecular viewer
    • Residue selection by clicking
    • Residue selection by chain and residue numbers
    • Change or create new display for the selected residues
    • Display symmetric molecules
    • Display unit cell
    • Hardware stereo support
    • Display the distance between atoms
    • Dump/restore the current state to/from the file (workspace)
  • Display electron-density maps
    Supported input formats are CCP4 (type2), X-PLOR/CNS (ascii), and BRIX
    • Mesh and surface display of electron-density maps (you can change the contour level dynamically!!)
    • Display electron density of an arbitrary (cubic) region.
  • Geometric object (solid/dashed lines)
  • Molecular surface object (generated by MSMS program)
