Molecular Geometry

Molecular geometry and labeling allows users to analyze the arrangement of atoms within a molecule. It allows users to measure distances between atoms, angles among three atoms, and dihedral angles among four. T

Measure Atomic Distance

Label the distance between 11 SG and 8 OD1

Show the distances between 1 and 70-75 in tiffany blue

Shows a dotted line and labels the distance between two specific atoms. The default measurement is in nanometers, but you can request angstroms.

Measure Atomic Angle

Label the angle between 3NH2, 3 CZ, and 3.NH1

Displays and labels the angle, in degrees, formed by three specific atoms.

Show Bonds and Contacts

Show bonds

Blue: Polar or ionic interactions, highlighting areas of electrostatic attraction between differently charged regions. Yellow/Orange: Weaker or less specific interactions, such as Van der Waals forces. These interactions are generally not as strong as hydrogen bonds but still contribute to the stability of the molecular configuration.

Label Residues

Label residues 1-2, and 7O

Displays the residue name and number for specified residues or atoms, helping with identification.
