How to create a 2D Ligand Receptor Interaction Diagram in MolSoft's (www.molsoft.com) ICM-Pro and ICM-Chemist Software. E mail info@molsoft.com or visit www.molsoft.com for more information.
A guide to the coloring and representation of the 2D display:
- Green shading represents hydrophobic region.
- Blue shading represents hydrogen bond acceptor.
- White dashed arrows represents hydrogen bonds.
- Grey parabolas represents accessible surface for large areas.
- Broken thick line around ligand shape indicates accessible surface.
- Size of residue ellipse represents the strength of the contact.
- 2D distance between residue label and ligand represents proximity.
- Covalently bound residue represented with thick black line around ellipse.
