Dear All,

MolSoft is excited to announce the release of an iPhone and iPad app 
that lets you browse protein, DNA, and drug molecules in 3D. The app has 
a direct link to the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and DrugBank and has a fast 
and easy to use interface. Touching the molecules via the screen allows 
you to interact immediately with the 3D structures in a unique way. You 
can zoom in and out, rotate, spin, pan, and clip the 3D molecules with 
your finger tips in ways that are impossible using a traditional mouse 
and desktop computer.

For more details and screenshots see: http://www.molsoft.com/iMolview.html

The key features are:

    * Easy to use touch interface.
    * A direct link to the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and DrugBank.
    * Each molecular view can be customized with a rich set of molecular
      representations including: wires, balls-and-sticks, space filling,
      ribbon diagrams, and molecular surfaces.
    * Zoom in and out, rotate, spin, pan, and clip the 3D molecule.
    * A wide selection of coloring schemes is available.
    * Color background, color molecule by atom type, chain, N- to C-
      terminal, and secondary structure.
    * Select residues, atoms, or chains and color or change their
      representations individually.
    * Select residues in sequence and get the corresponding selection in 3D.
    * Select the whole chain by holding the corresponding tab.
    * Display fog effect.
    * Set 'inertia' to the maximum and let your molecule spin in 3D
      indefinitely.
    * Display residue and site labels for the whole object or selection.
    * Direct link to PubMed.
    * Read in your own MolSoft ICM *.icb files.

We hope you enjoy using the app and find it useful for your research and 
teaching. We welcome any feedback you may have.

Thanks,
Andrew
