CLIP!: PLIP-based protein–ligand interaction analysis and visualization in UCSF ChimeraX

CLIP! combines ChimeraX and PLIP in a plugin for analyzing molecular complexes, exploring their interactions, and preparing figures through a graphical interface. Analysis uses the PLIP engine, while visualization uses native ChimeraX models, labels, and rendering.
