M. Bach, R. Brunner, J. Stone, K. Vandivort Version 0.85 June 25, 2002 Theoretical Biophysics Group University of Illinois and Beckman Institute 405 N. Mathews Urbana, IL 61801 JMV WWW home page: Description The JMV User’s Guide describes how to run and use the molecular visualization and analysis program JMV.
Chapter 1 Introduction JMV is a Java Molecular Viewer written in Java and Java3D. It can be used to load data files to display molecules in common molecular representations and color styles. Users can load files from a URL, from a local file, or from the RCSB databank. Users can also load PDB files when using BioCoRE.
Credits and Program Reference The authors request that any published work or images created using JMV include the following reference: Bach, M., Brunner, R., Stone, J., Vandivort, K. “JMV” JMV has been developed by the Theoretical Biophysics group at the University of Illinois and the Beckman Institute.
Chapter 2 Tutorials Rapid Introduction to JMV Here is a quick introduction to JMV. To start, you need Java and Java3D. See the Installation Guide for more details on getting those. From there, you can view JMV in a browser simply by visiting a webpage that uses JMV.
Chapter 3 User Interface Components Once you have JMV started, and have a file loaded, navigation is very simple. The molecule appears in the main canvas and the controls appear below. The mouse controls to orient the molecule are: Left button: Rotate Middle button: Zoom (Moving the mouse down zooms in, moving it up zooms out) Right button: Translate On 2-button mice, the controls are:...
Chapter 4 Loading A Molecule The “Load a file” section under the “File” menu brings up the file selection dialog box that allows you to load files to view in JMV. There are 2 types of files JMV can currently read, PDB files and VRML files.
Chapter 5 Molecular Drawing Methods Molecular Drawing Methods JMV allows you to view the molecule with different representations. To change the representa- tion, select “Representation” from the “View” menu, and select one of the choices. The current representations available are: 5.1.1 Lines The default representation is ‘Lines’, which is also known as ‘wireframe’.
5.1.6 Tube Tube draws a spline curve that goes through all the “Carbon-alpha” (CA) atoms in the molecule. The spline curve is drawn as a series of cylinders. 5.1.7 Trace Trace draws cylinders connecting the “Carbon-alpha” (CA) atoms in the molecule. This is similar to Tube, except the atoms are directly connected by cylinders, not by a smooth spline.
Chapter 6 Molecule colors JMV allows you to change the color gradient of the molecule. When selecting a color gradient, JMV uses 3 colors, a beginning, middle, and end color. The gradient fades from the beginning to the middle, and then from the middle to the end color to create a smooth color gradient. The number of “in-between”...
Chapter 7 Saving and loading sessions JMV allows you to save a session. Once you get a molecule in a particular representation, color, and orientation that you like, you can then save that session so you can look at it again later, or so that others can view your findings.

local filesystem. If you selected the “Save a JPEG of the JMV image?” box, then a JPEG file of the molecule window will also be saved to the BioFS and to your local filesystem. You can view saved .jmv files in the same way as PDB files, by selecting the “Properties” link, and the “View this molecule in JMV”...
Chapter 8 Viewing Modes JMV allows you to view the molecule in stereoscopic view. In stereoscopic view, 2 molecules are drawn, each from a slightly different viewpoint. These views are then switched back and forth very rapidly. When viewed with special glasses, each image is given to one eye, and the image appears in 3d.
Chapter 9 Display options The “Display Options” choice under the “View” menu brings up a panel allowing you to change display settings in JMV. Lights: The JMV scene has 4 built in lights: A light coming from the front, one from the back, one from the top, and one from the bottom.
