This is a collection of scenes I like. They show what is possible in Jmol, and they illustrate the power of biomolecular visualization particularly well. Each scene comes with one green link to show the scene on this page, and a regular link to see it in the context of the page where I found it.
tRNA cartoon3D scene and page context This cartoon shows the cloverleaf structure of tRNA with base pairs as ladders. The color coding is the same as in the 2D schematic it is paired with. Cellulose3D scene and page context This shows a model of cellulose (based on structural data, but not a crystal structure). The scene shows interactions of one glucose unit (hydrogen bonding within the layer, hydrophobic interactions between layers) explaining why cellulose is water insoluble and hard to hydrolyze. The scene makes use of slabbing so we can see the context while not obscuring the focal point. It uses the Jmol "contact" command to show both hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic contacts. https://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Cellulose#multiple%20layers%20stack | |||||||||||
