Which programs generate good images of structural biology models or molecular dynamics models?

Hi Guys.

I'm trying use the program Blender to create a great images from my structures. But, when i will render, the PC starting a lagging. So, wich good program can I use to make good imagens? I has a protein and a bilayer.

Thanks.

Is this just for illustration purposes, do you want to create a picture or and animation? Do you want to visualize the molecular dynamics of your protein interacting with a membrane? Which molecular dynamics software are you using and which data formats do you have? Did you try pymol?

Hi Michael.

First I need create a picture of all structure (protein with membrane). My file is from a trj maked with NAMD, but I have a other file form Rosetta. I used the Pymol, but i think the picture is very simple.

Hi João,

Have a look at the Pymol Gallery. As @genomax2 said, you are probably not using it correctly. You can import individual frames from your trajectory and work on an appropriate rendering style that you can then replicate for other frames/simulations.

Thanks every one.

I will delve a little deeper into PyMol.
