Just for the sake of accuracy, Molecules can view custom pdb files as well: from http://www.sunsetlakesoftware.com/molecules Custom molecule structures can also be downloaded to the device from any publicly available web server. The location of these structures can either be manually specified in the application, or custom URLs, such as molecules://www.sunsetlakesoftware.com/sites/default/files/neonPump.pdb.gz , can be clicked on within Safari or Mail on the device. This will launch Molecules and have it start downloading the file at that address. On iPad, molecular structures can now be dragged into the application directly using iTunes by going to the Applications tab, scrolling down to the bottom, and clicking on the Molecules icon.
