25.1.9.8. Ribbons

| top | pdf |

Ribbons software (Carson & Bugg, 1986[link]; Carson, 1997[link]) interactively displays molecular models, analyses crystallographic results and creates publication-quality images. Space-filling and ball-and-stick representations, dot and triangular surfaces, electron-density-map contours, and text are also supported. Input atomic coordinates are in Protein Data Bank (PDB) format. Output may be produced in the Inventor/VRML format.

Location: http://sgce.cbse.uab.edu/ribbons/ . Operating systems: UNIX, LINUX and PC. Type: source code and binary. Distribution: commercial.
