The Mol* Linker Studio#

The true power of Mol* Linker is the ability to dictate exactly how your molecules look before you even open them.

Instead of manually clicking through complex menus every time you view a structure, you can configure your ideal scientific visualizer in the Mol Linker Studio*.

Instant Application#

When you click a badge on a website, the extension instantly beams your saved configurations directly into the isolated 3D workspace tab. It parses your rules and applies the styling dynamically, ensuring your structures look perfect the millisecond they finish downloading.

Core Configuration Concepts#

To master the Studio, you should understand how the extension builds the 3D scene. Explore the sections below:

  • Targets: Understand the default categories (Protein, Nucleic, Water, Ion, etc.) the extension uses to group your atoms.
  • Scene & Styles: Learn how to map representations (Cartoon, Spacefill, Ball & Stick) to your targets.
  • Custom Rules: The most powerful feature. Learn how to override the defaults and build highly specific visual rules for your unique ligands, active sites, or mutation ranges.
