Molray– a web interface betweenOand thePOV-Rayray tracer

Abstract

A publicly available web-based interface is presented for producing high-quality ray-traced images and movies from the molecular-modelling program O [Jones et al. (1991), Acta Cryst. A47, 110-119]. The interface allows the user to select O-plot files and set parameters to create standard input files for the popular ray-tracing renderer POV-Ray, which can then produce publication-quality still images or simple movies. To ensure ease of use, we have made this service available to the O user community via the World Wide Web. The public Molray server is available at http://xray.bmc.uu.se/molray.

Structural and Biochemical Characterization of Compounds Inhibiting Mycobacterium tuberculosis Pantothenate Kinase

“…Other Methods-Structural figures were created in O and rendered with MOLRAY (25). Detailed structural comparisons were made in O with C␣ matching pair cutoffs of 3.8 Å (26).…”

Heparan Sulfate Dissociates Serum Amyloid A (SAA) from Acute-phase High-density Lipoprotein, Promoting SAA Aggregation

“…The models were adjusted in O, using rotamers that would improve packing in the interior of the protein and accounting for deletions in loop regions. The figure was prepared using MOLSCRIPT (21) and Molray (22). The conserved residues were determined by hidden Markov modelbased searches by SAM-T08 server (23) and ConSurf server searches (24).…”

“…Kleywegt, unpublished data). Molecular figures were made in O and rendered in Molray (Harris and Jones, 2001). MOLMOL (Koradi et al, 1996) was used to make solvent accessible-surface calculations.…”
