Molecular Structures Library

A molecular structure is a 3D representation of a molecule, such as a protein, that can be visualized and analyzed. TeselaGen organizes your Molecular Structures on the typical library view, which you can find under the Registry Toolkit:

Adding New Molecular Structures

To add a new molecular structure, click on the "New" option to carry out an RCSB Search (it finds most biological macromolecules). There, the system will show you the PDBs related to your search (organized based on score):

Once you have selected the structure(s) you want to add to the library, they will now be available. A Molecular Structure Entry looks like this:

On the entry, you can interact with the 3D structure and download the PDB file.

Linking Molecular Structures to Entries

Molecular Structures can be linked to entries on the Registry Toolkit. To do so, open the molecule (in this case, an amino acid sequence) and click on "Add Molecular Structure".

Next, select the structure you want to link:

Once the molecular structure(s) are selected, click on "Submit" and they will be linked to your entry.
