A set of standard color schemes for macromolecules, called [[DRuMS]], was released in 2000. These color schemes are offered on buttons in Proteopedia's [[Scene Authoring Tools]]. They derive in part from physical ball and stick models (called Corey-Pauling-Kolton or CPK models) that pre-dated computer visualization. Those early colors for chemical elements were incorporated into the color schemes built into early [[Molecular modeling and visualization software|Molecular Visualization Software]] such as [[Kinemages%2C_Mage_and_KiNG|Kinemages]], [[RasMol]], and [[Chime]]. The CPK colors for elements were incorporated into the [http://jmol.sourceforge.net/jscolors/ color schemes] built into [[Jmol]], the visualization engine used in Proteopedia. | A set of standard color schemes for macromolecules, called [[DRuMS]], was released in 2000.
