Prototype (and later successful) large-molecule crystallographic structure solution system. Successor to the MMS-4 system above. The 3-D spring-return joysticks either translate and rotate the molecular structure for viewing or a molecular substructure for fitting, mode controlled by a toggle switch. Britton, Lipscomb, Pique, Wright, Brooks: 1977
Chemical structures and reaction schemes should conform to the following: Images should be drawn with a molecule editor, never freehand; ACS settings should be used for both structures and reaction schemes. These settings are normally available as templates in chemical drawing programs. Use sans-serif fonts like Arial.
Spin labelled fatty acids have been extensively used to understand dynamic organization of lipids in bio-membranes and membrane biophysics.For example, stearic acid labelled with aminoxyl spin label moiety at various carbons (5, 7, 9, 12, 13, 14 and 16) with respect to first carbon of carbonyl group have been used to study the flexibility gradient of membrane lipids to understand membrane ...
Stereochemistry demands special attention because three-dimensionality is the most difficult part of a structure to visualize. Techniques for presenting 3-dimensional structures reflect the tastes of the artist. Three dimensionality is best highlighted by the depictions of bonds, using wedges, bolding, and hashed formats.
Site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) is a technique for investigating the structure and local dynamics of proteins using electron spin resonance. The theory of SDSL is based on the specific reaction of spin labels with amino acids. A spin label's built-in protein structure can be detected by EPR spectroscopy.
The chemical graph is first trimmed to remove hydrogen atoms and cycles are broken to turn it into a spanning tree. Where cycles have been broken, numeric suffix labels are included to indicate the connected nodes. Parentheses are used to indicate points of branching on the tree. The resultant SMILES form depends on the choices:
One way to do this is to export the file to a TIFF as well as a WMF. You can then use the TIFF as a background image to get the label placement as accurate as possible. The process is basically as follows: Draw structure in ChemSketch, clean up, check stereochemistry, etc. Select structure and apply the desired style (several templates are ...
It has also recently become possible to create accurate molecular models inside glass blocks using a technique known as subsurface laser engraving. The image at right shows the 3D structure of an E. coli protein (DNA polymerase beta-subunit, PDB code 1MMI) etched inside a block of glass by British company Luminorum Ltd.
