There is a link to [[FirstGlance in Jmol]] beneath the molecule (rotatable scene in Jmol) on every Proteopedia page title with a [[PDB identification code]]. [[FirstGlance in Jmol]] has a ''Contacts'' dialog, where you can select any moiety by clicking on it. (The moiety can be a chain, a segment of a chain, a single residue or ligand, or a single atom.) All the likely non-covalent bonds to the designated target moiety are then shown automatically. The putatively non-covalently bonded atoms can be hidden or shown in any combination of seven subsets: hydrogen bonds not involving water, hydrogen bonds involving water, water bridges, hydrophobic interactions, salt bridges, cation-pi orbital interactions,  metal and miscellaneous interactions. This display defines "likely hydrogen-bonded" oxygens and nitrogens (shown as balls) as those within 3.5 Å of other oxygens or nitrogens.
