jV version 3
jV version 3 (formerly known as PDBjViewer) is a program to display molecular graphics of proteins and nucleic acids. jV supports the following features:
• jV can read and display PDBML files, the canonical XML format for the Protein Data Bank.
• Of course, jV can read and display the traditional PDB format files, too.
• RasMol-like usability.
• jV can process more than one molecules.
• Multiple polygons can be processed simultaneously, and be superimposed onto molecular images.
• Animation can be realized.
• jV runs on the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) so that it can work as a stand-alone application as well as an applet.
• The graphics of jV is based on OpenGL (JOGL), thereby producing fairly beautiful pictures.
