UNLABELLED: The new version of the TRITON program provides user-friendly graphical tools for modeling protein mutants using the external program MODELLER and for docking ligands into the mutants using the external program AutoDock. TRITON can now be used to design ligand-binding proteins, to study protein-ligand binding mechanisms or simply to dock any ligand to a protein. AVAILABILITY: Executable files of TRITON are available free of charge for academic users at http://ncbr.chemi.muni.cz/triton/
