cellVIEW

cellVIEW is a tool that provides interactive real-time visualization of large biological macromolecular scenes, for instance, depicting bacteria and viruses at atomic resolution. CellVIEW is unique and has been specifically designed to match the ambitions of structural biologist to model and interactively visualize structures comprised of several billions atoms, which corresponds to sizes of small bacterial organisms.

The main purpose of cellVIEW is currently the visualization of the static structures of these microorganisms. We are continuously working on extending cellVIEW's capabilities, for instance in order to allow the depiction of the dynamic machineries of life within these organisms, as well as including modeling capabilities for these nano scale structures.
