Chem Sketch

What is ACD/ChemSketch ACD/ChemSketch is a chemical drawing software package from Advanced Chemistry Development, Inc. designed to be used alone or integrated with other applications. ChemSketch is used to draw chemical structures, reactions and schematic diagrams. It can also be used to design chemistryrelated reports and presentations. ACD/ChemSketch has the following major capabilities: · Structure Mode for drawing chemical structures and calculating their properties. · Draw Mode for text and graphics processing. · Molecular Properties calculations for automatic estimation of: * molecular weight; * percentage composition; * molar refractivity; * molar volume; * parachor; * index of refraction; * surface tension; * density; * dielectric constant; and * polarizability. ACD/ChemSketch can stand alone as a drawing package or act as the “front end” to other ACD software such as the NMR Predictor engines.

ExceL




Microsoft Excel (full name Microsoft Office Excel) is a spreadsheet application written and distributed by Microsoft for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. It features calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables and a macro programming language called VBA (Visual Basic for Applications). It has been a very widely applied spreadsheet for these platforms, especially since version 5 in 1993. Excel forms part of Microsoft Office. The current versions are Microsoft Office Excel 2010 for Windows and 2008 for Mac.

Protein Data Bank

A Resource for Studying Biological Macromolecules

The PDB archive contains information about experimentally-determined structures of proteins, nucleic acids, and complex assemblies. As a member of the wwPDB, the RCSB PDB curates and annotates PDB data according to agreed upon standards.

The RCSB PDB also provides a variety of tools and resources. Users can perform simple and advanced searches based on annotations relating to sequence, structure and function. These molecules are visualized, downloaded, and analyzed by users who range from students to specialized scientists.

Lon ATP-dependent proteases are key components of the protein quality control systems of bacterial cells and eukaryotic organelles. Eubacterial Lon proteases contain an N-terminal domain, an ATPase domain, and a protease domain, all in one polypeptide chain.
