CarbVis

A UCSF ChimeraX bundle implementing four carbohydrate-specific molecular visualizations:

  • PaperChain, with PaperChain Texture variant
  • Twister, with Twister Gum variant
  • Strand, with Candy Cane variant
  • Color by dihedral

Requirements

  • UCSF ChimeraX
  • Just

Building

Run just to build the Python wheel in build/, and just install to install it into ChimeraX.

The Justfile searches for the chimerax command in PATH, if this is not present set the CHIMERAX environment variable to the full path to the chimerax command.

Usage

In the ChimeraX command-line, run paperchain, twister, strand, or color bydihedral respectively.

Prefix those commands with help to print a list of arguments each command accepts to the console.

Attribution

The original PaperChain and Twister algorithms were ported from their implementations in VMD by Simon Cross et al.
