About ESmol -- molecular viewer APK

Description

ESmol -- Molecular Viewer for Android

NOTICE!

If your device can run NDKmol, please use it. It is much faster and
have more features than ESmol.
You can get NDKmol from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.sfjp.webglmol.NDKmol .

ESmol is maintained for compatibility with very old devices.

== About ==

ESmol is a molecular viewer for Android.

You can view three dimensional structures of proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules. ESmol supports most of common representations for molecules, such as ribbon, trace, stick, sphere and line. ESmol also supports symmetry operations; biological assemblies and crystal packing can be displayed. You can search and download structures from RCSB PDB and NCBI Pubchem.

ESmol has almost same functionality as GLmol, which is written in
WebGL/Javascript and runs on Web browsers. You can try GLmol at http://webglmol.sourceforge.jp/index-en.html

== Features ==

* Read PDB file
(ESmol cannot open LARGE molecules (more than 3MB). For this purpose, please use NDKmol at http://market.android.com/details?id=jp.sfjp.webglmol.NDKmol)
* Read SDF/MOL file
* Search and Download structures from RCSB PDB and NCBI PubChem
* Rotate/Translate/Zoom model by finger
* Representations
- Line
- Stick
- Sphere(van der Waals radius)
- Alpha carbon trace
- Ribbon
- Strand
- B factor tube
- Nucleic acid ladder
- Nucleic acid line
- solvent 'stars'
* Coloring
- By chain
- By secondary structure(when defined in SHEET/HELIX records)
- By Elements
- Gradation (a.k.a chainbow)
- B factor
- polar/nonpolar
* Crystallography
- Display unit cell
- Show crystal packing (when defined in REMARK section)
- Display biological assembly (when defined in REMARK section)

== How to Use ==

When launched, ESmol automatically loads deoxyhaemoglobin (PDBID: 4HHB) as an example. You can rotate the molecule by your finger.

To zoom or translate the molecule, press MENU button in your phone/tablet and select the mode. Two-finger gestures are also supported.

To load other PDB files, please put the file in "PDB" directory of the SD card and select "Open" command in the MENU. You can also download structures directly from RCSB PDB and NCBI PubChem web server. Select "Search and Download" in the menu.

== Contact ==

Project website is located at http://webglmol.sourceforge.jp/ . You can also get source codes.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
