NAME

       qutemol - interactive visualization of macromolecules

SYNOPSIS

       qutemol

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the QuteMol program.

       QuteMol  is  an  open  source  (GPL),  interactive,  high quality molecular visualization system. QuteMol
       exploits the current GPU capabilities through OpenGL shaders to offers  an  array  of  innovative  visual
       effects.  QuteMol  visualization techniques are aimed at improving clarity and an easier understanding of
       the 3D shape and structure of large molecules or complex proteins.

       Real Time Ambient Occlusion Depth Aware Silhouette Enhancement Ball and Sticks, Space-Fill and  Liquorice
       visualization  modes  High  resolution  antialiased snapshots for creating publication quality renderings
       Automatic generation of animated gifs of rotating molecules for web pages animations Real-time  rendering
       of large molecules and protein (>100k atoms) Standard PDB input.
