PyMol, interesting program to represent molecules

dna

In different subjects such as Chemistry, it can be very interesting to have more or less simple software with which we can represent the molecules. One of the options currently available is the PyMol program, We will talk about it today, a software that offers a more than interesting option to be able to represent molecules faithfully, but this is just one of the many uses of this interesting, intuitive and easy-to-use program.

The program is paid but allows you to download a trial version and is perfect so that in the educational field you can discover molecules graphically, which is a good way to learn. Representing molecules and other structures always helps to improve understanding and is a good way to get in touch with Chemistry or Biology, among other subjects where molecules usually play a certain role.

PyMol It offers some options to be able to place the molecules in different colors, give them animation and we can also choose from a wide variety of fragments that are already pre-designed with the program and that allow us to put them to better use, and more quickly.

In any case, it is not the most complete program that exists on the internet, but at least it can be tried in the trial period that it offers for free, in order to continue buying the final version in the event that it may continue to interest us. Depending on the options that each one wants when representing molecules, the PyMol program may be more or less interesting. We recommend it to you.
