The '''Anisotropic Network Model''' (ANM) is a simple yet powerful tool made for [[Normalnormal Modemode]] Analysisanalysis of proteins, which has been successfully applied for exploring the relation between function and dynamics for many [[protein]]s. It is essentially an Elastic Network Model for the [[Alpha and beta carbon|Cα atoms]] with a step function for the dependence of the force constants on the inter-particle distance.
