ChimeraX is an application for visualizing and analyzing molecule structures such as proteins, RNA, DNA, lipids as well as gene sequences, electron microscopy maps, X-ray maps, 3D light microscopy and 3D medical imaging scans. It is the successor of the UCSF Chimera program. Example images and feature highlights show a few of its capabilities, and recipes show example command and Python API use.
