      by Dr. A. Rachedi

      (DOWNLOAD the DEMO version of MtS)

        MtS is a real-time graphics software designed for the study of basic structural aspects of Amino acids, Important Protein Motifs, Nucleotides and DNA.

        MtS targets the undergraduate biology related students

        MtS support Windows 95/98/Me/XP platforms.

        MtS's main features:

        • The Molecules' coordinates are loaded with the MtS.exe file.
          No need to look for X-ray coordinates data files such as PDB files.

        • Molecules are presented as four slots: Amino Acids, Alpha/Beta structures, Nucleoties and Single/Double stranded DNA. Each slot provide a list of related molecules to choose from.

        • Usefull functions that help study and examin the molecules are available and include:
          • Manual and Auto-rotation of the displayed molecule
          • Bond-Distance calculation (click on two atoms to calculate)
          • Bond-Angle calculation (click on three atoms to calculate)
          • Torsion Angle calculation (click on four atoms to calculate)
          • Informative Ramachandran plot generation
          • Display of hydrogen bonds
          • Dextro and Laevo anantiomers of Amino Acids
          • Cross-eyed sterio display
          • Red-Green sterio display
          • Change molecules' colour
          • Change display's background colour OR have a background image
          • Export of the graphics display in a form of BMP format
          • Print function
          • Reset function
          • and many other functions ...
