PyMOL uses OpenGL Extension Wrangler Library (GLEW) and FreeGLUT, and can solve Poisson–Boltzmann equations using the Adaptive Poisson Boltzmann Solver. The Py part of the software's name refers to the program having been written in the programming language Python. PyMOL is one of the few mostly open-source model visualization tools available for use in structural biology. According to the original author, by 2009, almost a quarter of all published images of 3D protein structures in the scientific literature were made using PyMOL.
PyMOL can produce high-quality 3D images of small molecules and biological macromolecules, such as proteins.
As the original software license was a permissive licence, they were able to remove it new versions are no longer released under the Python license, but under a custom license (granting broad use, redistribution, and modification rights, but assigning copyright to any version to Schrodinger, LLC.), and some of the source code is no longer released. It is currently commercialized by Schrödinger, Inc. It was commercialized initially by DeLano Scientific LLC, which was a private software company dedicated to creating useful tools that become universally accessible to scientific and educational communities. PyMOL is an open source but proprietary molecular visualization system created by Warren Lyford DeLano.
