Making the Most of the Protein Data Bank (PDB) at UCSD

The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the world's single repository on the 3-D structures of biological macromolecules. It is going through an unprecedented growth as the result of structural genomics projects worldwide. The data access and distribution component of the PDB is housed at UCSD, however few researchers take advantage of this in their daily research and education activities. This presentation is a first step at changing that situation. The session will cover the contents of the PDB, current implementation of a completely redesigned version and new levels of data quality. Finally a few examples of how those in the life sciences can exploit PDB information will be given.
