Congratulations to Diana Silva from the Institute of Experimental Biology and Technology (IBET) in Portugal who was awarded the PDBe-sponsored prize for best poster at the recent International School on Biological

New features in the PDBe-KB aggregated views

New features in the PDBe-KB aggregated views

It is now even easier to view all the structural data available for a protein, thanks to recent updates to the PDBe-KB aggregated views.

New PDBe-KB aggregated views of protein structure

We are delighted to announce the new protein-centric aggregated views, developed as part of our new collaborative resource Protein Data Bank in Europe Knowledge Base (PDBe-KB).

The PDB archive reaches a significant milestone

The PDB archive reaches a significant milestone

With this week's update, the PDB archive has passed the milestone of 150,000 entries, and now contains a total of 150,145.

Mandatory mmCIF format for crystallographic depositions to the PDB

Mandatory mmCIF format for crystallographic depositions to the PDB

From July 1st 2019 onward, mmCIF format files will become mandatory for crystallographic depositions to the Protein Data Bank. PDB format files will no longer be accepted for deposition of structures solved by these techniques.

Bringing clarity to chemistry at PDBe

Bringing clarity to chemistry at PDBe

The PDB is an archive of macromolecular structures, but the small molecules bound in these structures are the focus of much interest. We have recently made some changes to the way we display images of small molecules at PDBe, which brings a lot more clarity to their chemistry.

PDBe, IRRMC, SBGrid, EMPIAR and BMRB are pleased to announce a web component available on the PDBe web pages that enables users to easily access unprocessed experimental data associated with PDB structures.

PDBe-KB: Help us enrich protein data with functional annotations

PDBe-KB: Help us enrich protein data with functional annotations

PDBe is looking for feedback on a new resource, PDBe-KB (Protein Data Bank in Europe - Knowledge Base), a community-driven resource managed by the PDBe team, collating functional annotations and predictions for structure data in the PDB archive.
