About
Enter a PDB ID such as 4HHB and the FastAPI backend downloads the structure from RCSB PDB along with its entry metadata: title, experimental method, resolution and deposit date. You can also upload or drag in your own .pdb file up to 5 MB. 3Dmol.js renders the model in WebGL on the client. You pick cartoon, stick, sphere or wireframe, colour by spectrum, chain, residue or element, and lay a van der Waals surface over the model at whatever opacity you want. The side panel counts the chains and atoms of the loaded structure, and quick-load buttons fetch oxyhemoglobin, crambin, the SARS-CoV-2 main protease and deoxyhemoglobin in one click. The app ships as a single Docker container on Hugging Face Spaces.
