Subject: [ccp4bb] 3D printing structures?
An off-topic question-now that 3D printing is becoming more common, has anyone tried to print protein structures other than just the surface representation like in this tutorial? http://www.instructables.com/id/3D-Print-a-Protein-Modeling-a-Molecular-Machine/
Is it possible to print a ribbon representation for example?
Thanks!
Ronnie
