Protein modeling using computer graphics. 1985

A J Morffew

This paper has aimed to give the reader an overview of the use of computer graphics in protein modeling. To judge the power of these systems the reader should take the opportunity of visiting a laboratory engaged in this research. It is hoped that one message has been made clear in this paper, that is, computer graphics is a powerful tool for molecular modeling that will be of great value to all groups involved in the design of novel polypeptides and other biologically active molecules.
