Official Kinemage Homepage

The kinemage authorship website was constructed as a resource for instructors and their  undergraduate students   authoring three-dimensional molecular structures, ie kinemages, from protein data bank files. In making a kinemage, the author must select the important features of the structures, then artistically illustrate and annotate those features. In this constructivist approach to molecular structure, the student becomes the teacher. Kinemages were developed for authors publishing in Protein Science, the journal of the Protein Society, by Jane and David Richardson. Please read their introduction to kinemages.

Many students have seen kinemages as textbook supplements. The goal of this project is to help them make their own supplements and hopefully gain a deeper knowledge of structure and the structure/function relationship in the process.

We are looking for biochemistry instructors who would be willing to use our materials in their class. If you are interested, go to the Instructor page. For programs and pertinent links, go to Authorship Links. To download our kinemage authorship manual, click here. A part of the manual is also available as an online tutorial.
