This software is a graphical tool for studying protein-protein interfaces. It links a 2D projection of a protein-protein interface to a 3D view of the protein structures. This Java-based software uses the representation of the protein- protein interface generated by ADSI, the interface-mapping module of ADS (analytically defined surfaces) software [1], and WebMol, a Java-based PDB viewer [2]. It is described in this month's issue of TIBS [3]. Please try out MolSurfer. All feedback appreciated.
