Protein Data Bank (PDB): Database of Three-Dimensional Structural Information of Biological Macromolecules

Abstract

The Protein Data Bank (PDB) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, is a database containing experimentally determined three-dimensional structures of proteins, nucleic acids and other biological macromolecules, with approximately 8000 entries. Data are easily submittedviaPDB's WWW-based toolAutoDep, in either mmCIF or PDB format, and are most conveniently examinedviaPDB's WWW-based tool3DB Browser.
