The most user-friendly and high-quality biological visual toolkit on blender, if not in current existence, all for the price of fueling the ATP synthase that it takes to click and install it
Import, animate and manipulate different molecular data formats inside of Blender using Geometry Nodes.
Quick download and import from the Protein Data Bank (PDB), AlphfaFold DataBase (AFDB), and parsing supported for importing all popular molecular data formats (.pdb
, .pdbx/.mmcif
, .bcif
, .sdf
, .xyz
) via the bundled python package biotite
.
Support for most MD topology and trajectory formats are supported via the bundled MDAnlaysis
python package. Trajectories are streamed from disk quick load, playback and memory efficient animations.

Molecular Nodes is a MUST HAVE addon for anyone interested in doing high quality protein/DNA renders for science communications AND you can make those protein bois wiggle wiggle wiggle!!!
Game-changer addon for non-destructive way to loading, styling, animating and interacting with proteins as well as DNA structures. I could not recommend it more!
