HaptiMOL ENM
Elastic network models (ENM) of biomolecules have proved to be relatively good at predicting global conformational changes, particularly in large systems. HaptiMOL ENM is software that facilitates rapid and intuitive exploration of conformational change in elastic network models of large biomolecules in response to externally applied forces.
Users are able to apply forces to individual atoms using a haptic (force) feedback device. The user feels the response to the applied force through the haptic device, whilst seeing the deformation on the screen.
