RCSB Protein Data Bank (RCSB PDB) enables breakthroughs in science and education by providing access and tools for exploration, visualization, and analysis of: Experimentally-determined 3D structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) archive. Computed Structure Models (CSM) from AlphaFold DB and ModelArchive.
As a member of the wwPDB, the RCSB PDB curates and annotates PDB data according to agreed upon standards. The RCSB PDB also provides a variety of tools and resources. Users can perform simple and advanced searches based on annotations relating to sequence, structure and function. These molecules are visualized, downloaded, and analyzed by users ...
The Protein Data Bank ( PDB) [1] is a database for the three-dimensional structural data of large biological molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids, which is overseen by the Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB). These structural data are obtained and deposited by biologists and biochemists worldwide through the use of experimental ...
PDB Overview. The PDB archive is a repository of atomic coordinates and other information describing proteins and other important biological macromolecules.
Basics of Syntax and Format. PDBx/mmCIF format utilizes the ASCII character set. All data items are identified by name, begin with the underscore character and are composed of a category name and an attribute name. The category name is separated from the attribute name by a period:
The Protein Data Bank (PDB)—the single global repository of experimentally determined 3D structures of biological macromolecules and their complexes—was established in 1971, becoming the first open-access digital resource in the biological sciences. The PDB archive currently houses ~130,000 entries (May 2017).
Introduction. Guide to Understanding PDB Data is designed to help you get started with finding and exploring the hundreds of thousands of 3D structures in the PDB archive. If you’re new to the world of structural biology, start with Introduction to the PDB.
