What Are People Saying About Protein Explorer?
"Protein Explorer is the most user-friendly program I have ever encountered. Usually when you leave the class, you're afraid to try it, but I'm not afraid to go back and try this". (Hortense Brice, Teacher at Whitney Young High School, Chicago IL US, after a two-day Protein Explorer workshop within a SEPA Course in Milwaukee, summer 2001.)
Marcey, David J., "Molecular Visualization for the Masses", BioMedNet issue 90, http://news.bmn.com/hmsbeagle/90/reviews/insitu (2000).
"One look at the demonstration of calmodulin complexing with calcium is a convincing lesson on the impact of multimedia in teaching protein structure and function. The concept of induced fit is given a new life by viewing proteins in full animation." Parslow, G. R., in "Websites of note", Biochem. Mol. Biol. Education 29:156, 2001.
