25.1.7.10. Turbo FRODO

| top | pdf |

FRODO (Jones, 1978[link]) is a general-purpose molecular-modelling program which can be used to model de novo macromolecules, polypeptides and nucleic acids from experimental 3D data obtained from X-ray crystallography and NMR, and to display the resulting models using various representations including van der Waals and Connolly molecular dot surfaces, as well as spline surfaces. Turbo FRODO is designed for ligand fitting and protein stacking. The user can interactively mutate a protein or chemically modify it, and evaluate the resulting conformational changes. There are several versions of FRODO around the scientific community. For LINUX and HPUX use the Turbo FRODO X version.

Location: http://afmb.cnrs-mrs.fr/TURBO_FRODO/turbo.html . Operating systems: HPUX, IRIX and LINUX. Type: binary. Distribution: commercial.
