HIV structure?

[Tommy Carstensen]

Where can I download a 3D model of HIV?

It depends on which version you want. I have found

git clone https://code.google.com/p/autofill/

to have the most models. I have changed the directory structure on my local copy a bit so you will have to dig around to find the model files you want. You will also need to follow this tutorial to get the new models into your software: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fcCWRhr3Itfx2Ou0gLmclczlV1zyaLqCgUJMWYqFkYw/edit?usp=sharing . There is another database available from https://github.com/mesoscope/cellPACK_data .

Thanks xmdwpl742 for the detailed answer.

Tommy, I recommend visiting http://www.cellpack.org/use for a description and interactions on how to view cellPACK models of HIV in Chimera.  There is also a link to the autoPACK installation that will allow you to load a model into Cinema 4D, Blender, 3D Studio Max, or Maya.  The old versions on the code.google.come/p/autofill site will not work with the latest uPy plugins for cellPACK in the above mentioned 3D software- the most recent recipes are stored as mentioned by xmd on https://github.com/mesoscope/cellPACK_data and some are directly accessible via the cellPACK/uPy plugin interfaces.

Sorry it is taking us so long to clean this up and document the code and how to use it- I'm looking forward to working on this again soon when I shift positions.

Thanks for your patience!
