This Android app presents information downloaded from RCSB.org - specifically it supports browsing of the excellent Molecule of the Month (MotM) feature:
http://pdb101.rcsb.org/motm/motm-about
The MotmBrowser contains a 3D viewer for viewing the featured RCSB Protein Data Bank (PDB) molecules. This viewer is under continuous development.
The Home screen of the Molecule of the Month Browser
A ribbon view of the 1BNA PDB entry
A fast scroll through 20 years and over 250 Molecule of the Month entries!!
The MotmBrowser references the awesome work by the RCSB team.
