I have installed a new release of Net Entrez on Athena (6.60) and an
associated 3d molecular image viewer Cn3D (2.0.1). There is now a new
Linux version also; however for Linux, only Cn3D will run on pre-Athena 8.2
Linux Athena releases.
Net Entrez is a network tool for searching various molecular structure
databases and journal articles relating to these; Cn3D is a nifty 3d image
viewer that can also be configured as a Netscape helper application, that can
diplay 3d molecular images for molecules found in the database. It is
similar to rasmol, which is also on Athena.
Access and configuration information, and Web starting points for Entrez
information from NCBI can be found at:
