View source for Molstar

[https://molstar.org/ Mol*] (/'molstar/) is an open collaboration started by PDBe and RCSB PDB to provide a technology stack for data delivery and analysis tools of macromolecules. Mol* builds on experience from previous solutions: [https://www.litemol.org LiteMol Suite], [https://webchem.ncbr.muni.cz WebChemistry], [http://nglviewer.org NGL Viewer], [http://mmtf.rcsb.org MMTF], [http://molql.org MolQL], [https://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbe/pdb-component-library/ PDB Component Library]

We developed [[User:Jaime_Prilusky/MolStarExtension|MolStarExtension]] enabling the use of Mol* on MediaWiki

== Mol* advantages compared to other viewers ==
* Renders macromolecules with millions of atoms and large Cryo-EM data sets (i.e. [[5ire]] [[6b43]])
* Provides access to a wide range of model and volumetric (experimental) data, and makes it possible to see how well the models fit to experimental data, e.g. density maps from X-rays or EM.
* Renders using HTML5 or WebGL

== Mol* disadvantages compared to other viewers ==
* There's no scripting language
