From: MoFlow: visualizing conformational changes in molecules as molecular flow improves understanding

Figure 1

Molecular motion becomes easier to understand as the representation becomes more flow-like. (a) traditional cartoon representation of the AAV-2 capsid protein monomer; (b) single-pose representation of the alpha-carbon backbone of AAV-2 monomer where color represents location along backbone; (c) 10-pose rendering colored by sequential position of the molecule; (d) 10-pose rendering colored by time-point; (e) 100-pose rendering colored by time-point. (f) Full MoFlow representation. The eye is immediately drawn to the three areas of significant motion; The backbone structure remains visible, while motion paths are comprehendible with minimal effort.
