Ammolite - From Biotite to PyMOL and back again

This package enables the transfer of structure related objects from Biotite <https://www.biotite-python.org/>_ to PyMOL <https://pymol.org/>_ for visualization, via PyMOL's Python API:

  • Import AtomArray and AtomArrayStack objects into PyMOL - without intermediate structure files.
  • Convert PyMOL objects into AtomArray and AtomArrayStack instances.
  • Use Biotite's boolean masks for atom selection in PyMOL.
  • Display images rendered with PyMOL in Jupyter notebooks.

Have a look at this example <https://ammolite.biotite-python.org/examples/gallery/heme_complex.html>_:
