Visualize macromolecular structures
PDBe can be used to visualize atomistic models of macromolecular structures (proteins/DNA/RNA) derived by various experimental methods, e.g. X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electron microscopy (EM).
An example of an atomistic model is shown below in Figure 3.
