Mesage from the RCSB PDB
New and enhanced features have been added to the RCSB PDB, including:
- The Simple Search available from the top menu bar has a cleaner and simpler look and feel. The search form offers the same search suggestion capabilities.
- A new Browse Database option can be used to find structures using the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification System for drugs from the WHO Collaborating Centre for Drug Statistics Methodology.
- Jmol pages now include an updated Display Options menu, new scripting options, tabs for domains and ligands, and the JavaScript beta version of Jmol.
- Information about protein stoichiometry and symmetry have been integrated into drill down charts and Advanced Search. Symmetry features can be highlighted in Jmol.
- Options to search, view annotations, and visualize about the peptide-like antibiotic and inhibitor molecules described in the wwPDB's Biologically Interesting molecule Reference Dictionary.
