alexandra m. pickett on 05 Dec 09Swiss PDB Viewer is a free program to display, analyze and manipulate PDB protein structures. Next to features such as protein superimposition, H-bond detection, amino acid mutation etc., the protein is tightly linked to Swiss- Model, an automated homology modeling server running at the Geneva Biomedical Research Center. This allows for threading a protein primary sequence to a 3D template and analyzing homology. The displaying options of the program include spacefill, ball & stick, stick and ribbon representations, all of which can be applied simultaneously within one structure model.
