Description
Molecular surface and pocket analysis supports key tasks in structural biology and drug discovery, from exploring protein cavities to characterizing potential binding sites.
This contribution will present a short live demonstration of NanoShaperWeb, a freely accessible web server for molecular surface generation and pocket detection. Starting from a protein structure, the demo will show how a researcher can launch an analysis in the browser, follow the remote computation, inspect detected pockets and molecular surfaces interactively, and download ready-to-use outputs such as pocket structures, surface meshes, logs, and pocket descriptors.
We will highlight design choices that matter for scientific web tools: clear inputs, visible job status, reproducible outputs, and enough control for expert users while keeping the workflow approachable for a broader research community.
