The use of 3D structures derived from X-ray crystal data in drug development has increased in recent years. Molecular graphics applications are important tools at the end of the data processing pipeline and provide means to build, refine and validate protein models and ligand structures. We describe the requirements on useful data, what such data provide and typical problems in dealing with protein-ligand complexes and how one might address them with an emphasis on the use of Coot.

Background: Haplotype networks are useful for investigating the genealogical relationships among haplotypes and have been extensively used in molecular evolution and population genetic studies. However, existing tools for visualizing haplotype networks lack comprehensive functionalities for data exploration and layout adjustments. Therefore, there is a need for a useful tool capable of constructing and visualizing haplotype networks, facilitating the exploration of data, particularly with datasets with large sample sizes.

Phase change materials such as Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) are ideal candidates for next-generation, non-volatile, solid-state memory due to the ability to retain binary data in the amorphous and crystal phases and rapidly transition between these phases to write/erase information. Thus, there is wide interest in using molecular modeling to study GST. Recently, a Gaussian Approximation Potential (GAP) was trained for GST to reproduce Density Functional Theory (DFT) energies and forces at a fraction of the computational cost [Zhou et al.

Biological data visualization is challenged by the growing complexity of datasets. Traditional single-data plots or simple juxtapositions often fail to fully capture dataset intricacies and interrelations. To address this, we introduce "cross-layout," a novel visualization paradigm that integrates multiple plot types in a cross-like structure, with a central main plot surrounded by secondary plots for enhanced contextualization and interrelation insights.

Isonitrile-derivatized amino acids are emerging as highly effective infrared (IR) probes for investigating the structures and dynamics of hydrogen (H)-bonds. These probes enable the quantification of chemical exchange processes in solute-solvent complexes via two-dimensional IR spectroscopy and hold significant promise for site-specific dynamic studies within proteins. Despite their potential, theoretical models that elucidate the solvatochromism of isonitriles remain underdeveloped.
