The PyMOL Team has created a truly open source molecule visualization system
Warren Lyle Delano developed PyMOL (pleomorphic analytical methodology). DeLano Scientific LLC was the first to commercialize PyMOL, a private software company that develops useful tools for education and scientific communities around the world. It uses the same Pyromorphic analyses methodologies as structural biology. This type of analysis can be used to characterize different organic or inorganic substances using sensitive instruments.
This product has been widely used in structural biology, astronomy and other fields. PyMOL is used by many institutions, including NASA, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), and the University of California at Berkeley. PyMOL's founders had one goal: to create open-source software products that could be used to analyze different types of organic molecules and their atoms. The program has been modified and adapted to many fields including chemistry, astronomy and pharmaceutical sciences since its inception. PyMOL has been used by many colleges and universities to create their own research facilities. This open-source package is distinguished by two key components.
PyMOL's first component is its open-source molecule visualization system. It was developed and created by a team of scientists and engineers at DeLano Scientific LLC. PyMOL was licensed to meet the needs of scientific and educational communities. This includes the Department of Energy's Office of Scientific and Engineering Research, the National Institutes of Health and the Defense Advanced Research Projects. The Common Gateway for Educational Software is another important feature of the open-source molecular visualization software. It is compatible and available through the Common Gateway for Educational Software, an online repository managed US Education and Research Development Agency. PyMOL is easy to use and implement by educational institutions because it can be accessed on multiple platforms including Windows, Linux, UNIX and Solaris.
