Dear Netters

Here are some more programs that can be added to the list I posted some
time ago, under the same subject heading!

1.  TOM  (discussed in Cindy Fisher's posting) is available via FTP from

	Chemi2.ucsd.edu

in the directory /pub/tom/

This works quite well on SGI platforms and is used frequently in most
crystallography labs.

2.  MMS   This program is also available from the site mentioned above
in the directory /pub/mms/.  In my opinion, this is an excellent program
for viewing and modelling proteins.  The interface is quite good (I run
it on a SGI Indigo XS/24) and produces excellent output, including balck
and white postscript suitable for publication.  You might remember my
discussion regarding MOLSCRIPT being used extensively for the latter.
Steve Dempsey wrote and maintained this program, but Mark Israel at UA,
Edmonton has recently made some modifications and is distributing the
same.


3.  RASTER 3D:  As the name implies this program produces good quality
raster (space filling) strucuture of proteins.  The input being a PDB
file. There are different versions of this software as the README file
would tell you from the following site:

by anon. FTP

stanzi.bchem.washington.edu

the programs are in /pub.

 
These programs are highly recommended to those interested in modelling
protein structures.

Cheers
