SUMMARY Easy-to-use, open-source, general-purpose programs for modeling a protein structure from inter-atomic distances are needed for modeling from experimental data and refinement of predicted protein structures. OpenMDlr is an open-source Python package for modeling protein structures from pairwise distances between any atoms, and optionally, dihedral angles. We provide a user-friendly input format for harnessing modern biomolecular force fields in an easy-to-install package that can efficiently make use of multiple compute cores. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION OpenMDlr is available at https://github.com/BSDExabio/OpenMDlr-amber. The package is written in Python (versions 3.x). All dependencies are open-source and can be installed with the Conda package management system. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
