Did you know... NsSNP Loader == Description == This plugin allows the user to enter a SNP (rs) or a Swiss-Prot id and load the structural model from the large scale non-synonymous SNP database LS-SNP if one exists. If more than one nsSNP is present for the chosen protein, all nsSNPs are listed and the user is able to choose which nsSNPs they wish to view. Once selected, the modeled structure is loaded, each residue is mutated to the nsSNP to allow easy comparison to the base structure. Comments As this plugin requires an internet connection it also requires the Proxy Config plugin. Download Download by right clicking the link and choosing 'Save Link As...'. Download here Then run PyMol and under the 'Plugin' menu option choose 'Install Plugin...'. Author Noel Faux
