Quickly Find What’s Visible in Your Molecular Scene in SAMSON

If you’re working with complex molecular scenes in SAMSON, you already know how cluttered things can get. Whether you’re analyzing a large biomolecule or a protein-ligand complex, your screen might quickly become filled with visual models, surfaces, meshes, and more.…

How to Filter Side Chains by Atom Count in Molecular Models

OneAngstrom

When working with large molecular systems, quickly locating and analyzing specific side chains based on their atomic composition can become a challenge. Whether you’re interested in simplifying your view, isolating chemically relevant groups, or preparing a structure for coarse-grained simulations,…

Undocking Made Easy: A Flexible Way to Animate Molecular Interactions

OneAngstrom

Have you ever needed to clearly illustrate how a ligand detaches from a receptor in a molecular complex during your presentations or simulations? Whether you’re preparing educational materials, creating a scientific demo, or simply visualizing transitions in molecular assemblies, demonstrating…

Choosing the Right Reaction Coordinate for Umbrella Sampling in GROMACS Wizard

OneAngstrom

One of the most important steps in running a successful Umbrella Sampling workflow is the definition of the reaction coordinate. This choice will directly impact the relevance and clarity of the computed Potential of Mean Force (PMF) profile. However, selecting…

Frustrated by Flat Molecular Presentations? Try Orbiting Your Camera

OneAngstrom

If you’ve ever struggled to give your molecular presentations more visual impact—or if your audience is tuning out due to lifeless, static shots—this tip is for you. Molecular design platforms like SAMSON offer tools built for clarity and storytelling. One…

Tired of File Format Incompatibilities? Here’s What SAMSON Supports

OneAngstrom

If you’ve ever tried to switch between molecular modeling tools, you’ve likely hit the same roadblock as many others: file format compatibility. Each tool seems to speak its own language. One moment you’re saving a .PDB file, the next you’re…

Creating Custom Atom Groups for GROMACS in SAMSON Without Writing a Line of Code

OneAngstrom

Anyone working with molecular simulations using GROMACS has probably encountered the need to define specific groups of atoms—called index groups. Whether for pulling coordinates, selective restraints, or custom analyses, these groups are essential. Yet, editing index.ndx files manually can be…

Bridging Molecular Modeling Tools with SAMSON Apps

OneAngstrom

Imagine you’re working with multiple molecular modeling tools—perhaps you’ve built a workflow using AutoDock Vina for docking studies, a custom Python script for data analysis, and a visualization tool to review results. Keeping everything in sync, managing data flow, and…

Quickly Find the Right Molecular Models with Structural Attributes

OneAngstrom

When working with large molecular systems in SAMSON, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of models you’re interacting with. Whether you’re analyzing a complex simulation or preparing a presentation, you often need to isolate just the structural…

Claim Your Handle: Why Molecular Modelers Should Set Up a Public Profile

OneAngstrom

Establishing your presence in a scientific platform can be just as essential as conducting the research itself. In fields like molecular modeling and computational chemistry, sharing your work and connections helps promote reproducibility, discoverability, and collaboration. But when it comes…
