Web Links 

(Note: this page will be updated as we go thru the semester, send me a link that would be of general interest to the class.)

           highly recommended:

• *National Center for Biotechnology Information; includes PubMed, BLAST, GenBank, Structural data, various tutorials including a visualization tool for biomolecular structures - Cn3D .  Note - other molecular visualization programs include RasMol and PyMol.  (See a tutorial on PyMol, parts 1 2 3,  by Dr. Robertus for a "Virtual Drug Screen" Freshman "stream" course)
• Web of Science   provides faculty and students with quick access to the world's leading citation databases. 
• EMBL site (Computational Services - CLUSTAL W).
• EMBL site for estimating pI (isoelectric pt) from a.a. sequence  (pI_estimator)
• ExPASy - Swiss Model - Expert Protein Analysis System (Proteomics Tools) pI/MW estimator
• PDB - Protein Data Bank
• UT Library  Electronic Journals on line
• Polyview 3D Server - menu generation of animated images and publication figures
• MolviZ "Top 5" - links and tutorials to molecular visualization technologies
• Sidney Morris' Molecular ToolBox
• Molecular Models for Biochemistry
• Free Molecular Visualization Software
• Glossaries
• Novagen Home Page
• Online Macromolecular Museum
• Nobel Prize Laureates
• KEGG Pathway Database - reaction networks in Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes

          Other links:   Miscellaneous possibly useful stuff

• The Rasmol Homepage   Great for viewing protein and nucleic acid structures.
  The Dali server for comparing 3-D protein structures.
  The  New York Times science pages. Requires registration, which is free.
  The Univ of Texas Dept of Chemistry and Biochemistry home page.
  The  Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology (ICMB)  home page.
  Biochemistry Textbook
