Abstract

Historically, bioinformaticians have carried out protein analysis in one of two ways: by concentrating on either the physical structural representation of the subject data or a more abstract sequential representation. This paper describes a system currently in development at The University of Manchester that attempts to unify these two paradigms. We discuss the use of high-end rendering techniques to greatly increase the level of detail and interactivity of molecular visualisation, and describe the requirements placed upon that visualisation by the relationship between the abstract and physical models.
