From intsim.com!haun@news.cts.com Fri Aug 1 17:03 EDT 1997 Date: Fri, 01 Aug 1997 12:15:49 -0700 To: chemistry-request@www.ccl.net From: Dan Haun Interactive Simulations, Inc., is pleased to announce the release of SCULPT Revision 2.5 for the PC. The new features include a 2D-3D converter and greater file compatibility. In addition, Interactive Simulations is now providing a stand-alone 3D builder called ChemBuilder3D that will read and write PDB, MM3, MacroModel and MDL Mol files. With these additions, SCULPT will be better equipped for modeling small molecules from various drawing programs. Recently Interactive Simulations, Inc., announced a development partnership with MDL Information Systems, Inc. SCULPT users will now be able to copy and paste from MDL's ISIS/Draw (Mol file format) and hot-link with Chemscape's Chime. Chime allows access to web site technologies with intricate viewing features of structures. It also provides the capability of sharing information with colleagues. Hot-linking into SCULPT will enhance its viewing capabilities by offering chemists the power of visualizing the flexibility of that structure. SCULPT will continue to offer the interactive capabilities of overlaying one or more molecules, twisting and turning molecular structures, energetically docking ligands, minimizing in real-time, and visualizing of H-bond electrostatics and van der Waals forces. SCULPT also allows you to copy and paste into MS Word, and Power Point for documentation and presentation as well as allowing you to record quick time movies. Hardware requirements for SCULPT are Pentium-grade PCs with a minimum of 16MB of Memory and 10MB on the hard drive. SCULPT V.2.1 is also available for the PowerMac and SGI platforms.
