RCSB PDB APIs, RCSB.org, and PDB101.rcsb.org enforces the use of the secure HTTPS protocol. HTTP Strict Transport Security headers are implemented.
RCSB.org data and services have supported HTTPS protocol since 2017, but with this change all users will be redirected to HTTPS to guarantee secure communication.
Programmatic users are encouraged to switch to HTTPS as soon as possible. Not all HTTP clients will necessarily follow redirects automatically.
Individual website users should not be impacted, as modern web browsers will redirect automatically.
Membrane annotations from OPM, PDBTM, and MemProtMD have been integrated with PDB data.
A custom Mol* visualization enables prediction and visualization of the membrane layer placement.
Users access detailed information on the ‘Annotations’ tab of individual Structure Summary pages and browse OPM annotations using the ‘Browse Annotations’ feature.
Transmembrane sequence segments are highlighted in the 1D Protein Feature View.
Annotations in Protein Feature View
Documentation is available for these features.
New charts can be used to visualize the growth in the number of protein sequence clusters in PDB.
Number of Unique Protein Sequence Clusters within Released PDB Structures (Annual) shows the total number of unique protein sequence clusters in PDB by year.
PDB Statistics: Growth in Number of Protein Sequences in Released PDB Structures (Cumulative) shows the annual and cumulative numbers of protein sequences in released PDB structures.
These charts can be viewed at different levels of sequence identity.
A new paper describes the architectural redesign of RCSB PDB data delivery services that build on existing PDBx/mmCIF data schemas:
