Computer-Aided Chemistry Modeling Set Unsurpassed
Graphics for the Crystallographer! Build any crystal molecule!

Features
ChemSite is a PC-based three-dimensional molecular modeling program for
drawing, displaying, and simulating the dynamic behavior of organic and
biological molecules. The program offers an interactive molecule-building
facility for the creation of almost any molecule. Biological macromolecules
can be built by hand or read in from Brookhaven Protein Data Bank files.
ChemSite also reads and writes data files from other molecular modeling
and chemical drawing programs, including Molecular Design Limited (MDL)
.mol files, Mopac Z-matrix files, and cartesian A files.
Molecules can be rotated in 3D in real time, and a variety of sophisticated
rendering techniques are available for visualizing molecules as space-filling
entities. Photorealistic graphics can be generated with ChemSite on PCs
equipped with a Super VGA graphics adapter.
Since molecules are not static and can adopt a multitude of conformations,
or shapes, visualization of conformational flexibility is vital to understanding
molecular structure and function. The flexible nature of molecules can
be studied with ChemSites molecular dynamics facility. Energy minimization,
constant-temperature, and constant-energy molecular dynamics simulations
can be conducted with any molecule or system of molecules, and dynamics
trajectories-conformational patterns and behavior-can be saved to disk
for playback at a later time
Benefits
ChemSite is an inexpensive and easy-to-use alternative for generating
3D representations of molecular structures and performing basic molecular
modeling. Students new to the world of chemistry will benefit from the
visual environment for studying the nature of molecules and form ChemSites
built-in rules of chemistry. Educators can use ChemSite to illustrate
concepts in lecture presentations and course materials. Researchers in
academia and industry will find ChemSite useful for advanced studies of
structures and easy development of detailed models for papers and presentations.
ChemSite Pro includes all of the features
of ChemSite Standard plus adds a fully interactive
crystal builder. Ionic, metallic, covalent and molecular crystals may
be constructed using a database of all 230 space groups, with choice of
cell type and unique axis where appropriate. A must for any crystallographer!
Works interactively with Molecular Modeling Pro.
