I notice you don't have the American chemical society official font sizes installed.

I use MarvinSketch for chemistry stuff.
Comfy as fuck and open sores.

I had to use FlyBase for PCR funsies. God it's a PHP encoded nightmare

No, fucking seriously, all you have to do is get good at ChemDraw. Just fucking YouTube a tutorial on how to draw a catalytic cycle FFS

Draw by hand and the scan

1) it takes practice---you get better
2) Make 1 arrow for your catalytic cycle and copy and paste it so they are al the same length
3) Use "clean up structure" to reset your bond lengths and angles to something more uniform
