Visualization and Analysis of Protein Structures with LiteMol Suite

LiteMol suite is an innovative solution that enables near-instant delivery of model and experimental biomacromolecular structural data, providing users with an interactive and responsive experience in all modern web browsers and mobile devices. LiteMol suite is a combination of data delivery services (CoordinateServer and DensityServer), compression format (BinaryCIF), and a molecular viewer (LiteMol Viewer). The LiteMol suite is integrated into Protein Data Bank in Europe (PDBe) and other life science web applications (e.g., UniProt, Ensemble, SIB, and CNRS services), it is freely available at https://litemol.org , and its source code is available via GitHub. LiteMol suite provides advanced functionality (annotations and their visualization, powerful selection features), and this chapter will describe their use for visual inspection of protein structures.
