DESCRIPTION

Molecules is an application for viewing three-dimensional renderings of molecules and manipulating them using your fingers. You can rotate the molecules by moving your finger across the display, zoom in or out by using two-finger pinch gestures, or pan the molecule by moving two fingers across the screen at once. These structures can be viewed in both ball-and-stick and space-filling visualization modes.

PROS

1. Useful for biochem as it uses data from RCSB Protein Data Bank. It also provides sequence for proteins.

2. Custom molecular structures can be downloaded to the application via iTunes file sharing, or through the use of custom URL formats.

3. Showcases the molecules in a 3D manner with 360° rotation.

TAGS
CONS

1. Does not categorize by point group, unlike 3Dmolsym.

2. Unable to rotate or perform symmetry operations.
