The Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) consists of organizations that act as deposition, data processing and
distribution centers for PDB data. The founding members are
RCSB PDB
(USA),
PDBe (Europe) and
PDBj (Japan)1. The BMRB (USA) group joined the wwPDB in 2006. The mission of the
wwPDB is to maintain a single Protein Data Bank Archive of
macromolecular structural data that is freely and publicly
available to the global community.
This site provides information
about services provided by the individual member organizations and
about projects undertaken by the wwPDB.
