Mark,
Ligand Explorer displays hydrogen bonds, water-mediated hydrogen
bonds, metal coordination, and hydrophobic contacts. High resolution
images can be exported in several file formats.
Ligand Explorer is available from each PDB entry's Structure Summary
page at the RCSB PDB (www.pdb.org).
For examples:
* go to http://www.pdb.org/pdb/explore/explore.do?structureId=1STP
and launch Interaction View/Ligand Explorer from the Ligand/Chemical
Component box
* launch the program directly from
http://www.pdb.org/pdb/explore/viewerLaunch.do?
viewerType=LX&structureId=1OHR&hetId=1UN
In this URL, 1OHR specifies the PDB ID, and 1UN the Chemical
Component ID.
Best,
Christine
