[Jmol-users] Recent MolVis articles in BAMBEd

[Annemarie H. <hon...@bi...>]

Dear Eric

These model kits are from the CBME (Centro de Biotechnologia =20
Molecular Estructural)
A colleague brought me their excellent "Protein Folder" modeling kit =20
from Brazil, a
really neat modeling set for building cartoon-type structural =20
representations. Very clear
instructions for building a variety of interesting structures are in =20
Portuguese with the English translation
in a separate column on the side of the page.  If you wish, I can =20
scan and send you a couple
of pages from the booklet to give you an idea what it is about.

The CMBE website ( http://cbme.if.sc.usp.br/) and e-mail adress
( cb...@if...) are given as contact information for obtaining =20
this modeling set.

                                       Annemarie
