Anyone who models biomolecular systems knows how tedious it can be to manually pick specific residues in a 3D viewport. Whether you’re selecting residues for simulations, mutations, or analysis, navigating protein structures in 3D often leads to frustration—especially when chains…

Running an Umbrella Sampling simulation can be time-consuming, especially when it comes to preparing the system correctly. One of the most critical — and often tedious — steps is choosing the right initial conformations. Missteps here can affect the reliability…

If you’re working in molecular modeling or computational chemistry, your simulation tools can quickly become a digital jungle. Between installing plugins, keeping track of licenses, and updating packages, managing your modeling environment can be more time-consuming than the modeling itself.…

When setting up free energy calculations or analyzing ligand unbinding mechanisms, accessing atomic coordinates at fixed intervals along a trajectory is often a prerequisite. But extracting this data isn’t always straightforward. What if you’re interested in only a subset of…

One of the most common challenges molecular modelers face is visual overload—too many atoms, residues, or chains can make it nearly impossible to focus or communicate your scientific point effectively. Whether you’re preparing a publication figure or simply trying to…

Anyone working regularly in molecular modeling knows how repetitive and time-consuming setting up a clean, clear visualization can be. You may spend several minutes choosing representations, hiding solvent atoms, coloring chains, creating attractive figures—only to repeat the same steps a…
