Upcoming Events
UCSF ChimeraX (or simply ChimeraX) is the next-generation molecular visualization program from the Resource for Biocomputing, Visualization, and Informatics (RBVI), following UCSF Chimera. ChimeraX can be downloaded free of charge for academic, government, nonprofit, and personal use. Commercial users, please see ChimeraX commercial licensing.
ChimeraX is developed with support from National Institutes of Health R01-GM129325.

Example Image
Calmodulin (CaM) acts as a calcium sensor. When its four Ca++ sites
are fully occupied, it binds and modulates the activity of
various downstream proteins, including CaM-dependent protein kinase I (CaMKI).
Here, a complex between CaM and its target peptide from CaMKI
(PDB 1mxe) is shown with cartoons, a
transparent molecular surface, silhouette outlines, and
light soft
ambient occlusion. (If you prefer a less smudgy/rustic appearance, try using
light gentle
instead.)
For image setup other than positioning,
see the command file cam.cxc.
