A Simple Way to Animate Molecular Trajectories in SAMSON

Visualizing molecular dynamics or conformational changes often means working with complex trajectories. While such motion can reveal critical biological or chemical insights, turning a trajectory into a clear, smooth animation can become a time-consuming task. That’s where SAMSON’s Play path…

Easily Target Camera Nodes Using NSL in SAMSON

When working on complex molecular scenes in SAMSON, clarity is key. Whether you’re preparing a presentation, setting up multiple viewpoints, or scripting analyses, you often need to isolate and interact with camera nodes specifically. Unlike atoms or molecules, cameras have…

Choosing the Right Symmetry Group in Large Molecular Assemblies

When working with complex biological assemblies—like viral capsids or symmetrical protein complexes—one of the recurring challenges in molecular modeling involves identifying and exploiting symmetry. Symmetry helps reduce computational costs, validate structure quality, and guide the design of biomolecular nanostructures. But…
