CELLmicrocosmos 2.2 Membrane Editor

Previous student developers: Tim Dingersen (main), Sebastian Schneider, Christian Gamroth, Sebastian Rubert

The CELLmicrocosmos 2.2 MembraneEditor can be used to model membranes based on lipid and protein files in PDB format. It is possible to interactively generate structural and compositional heterogeneous membrane patches as well as vesicles. The created structures can be used for visualization purposes, structural analysis or as a base for molecular simulations. Windows, Mac OS X as well as Linux are supported. Requirement: Java 7+ has to be installed beforehand. For semi-automatic placement of proteins, the OPM and PDB_TM database are used. A direct connection to the PDB database for downloading PDB files is also integrated. The PDB export module provides many options, enabling compatibility to all PDB viewers to the best of our knowledge.
