This is a list of tips and tricks to develop effective scenes for your pages.
Tip #1: When developing a series of scenes illustrating related parts of a protein, use the “transition options” to create smooth transitions void of peculiar zoom-outs, etc.

Example from the page HMG-CoA Reductase:
The HMG binding pocket is the site of catalysis in HMGR. is a critical structural element of this binding site. Residues and are positioned in the active site as is . It is this K691 that likely stabilizes the negatively charged oxygen of the first mevaldyl-CoA intermediate. The mevaldyl CoA intermediate is subsequently converted to Mavaldehyde with added stabilization from . It is then believed that the close proximity of increases the pKA of E559, allowing it to be a proton donor for the reduction of mevaldehyde into mevalonate.
