Version 2 NMR Restraint Files Available from the wwPDB FTP

Thu, 2 July 2010 00:00:01 GMT

A new set of NMR restraint data files have been added to the wwPDB FTP. These restraint files, identified as Version 2 files, are represented in NMR-STAR 3.1 format, contain current PDB atom nomenclature, and provide accurate atom-level correspondences to the NMR model coordinate files in the current archive.

wwPDB To Provide Validation Reports as PDFs

Version 2 NMR Restraint Files to be Released in the wwPDB FTP on June 30, 2010

Fri, 30 Apr 2010 00:00:01 GMT

With the June 30, 2010 update, a new set of NMR restraint data files will be added to the wwPDB FTP archive (ftp://ftp.wwpdb.org, ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk, and ftp://pdb.protein.osaka-u.ac.jp). These restraint files, which will be identified as Version 2 files, are represented in NMR-STAR 3.1 format, contain current PDB atom nomenclature, and provide accurate atom-level correspondences to the NMR model coordinate files in the current wwPDB archive. Restraint files containing restraint data as originally deposited (Version 1 files) will remain on the site and will continue to be updated regularly as new NMR entries are released.

Changes to the wwPDB Policy for Depositing Polypeptide Structures

Thu, 18 Feb 2010 00:00:01 GMT

The wwPDB now accepts polypeptide structure depositions of all gene products; all naturally-occuring, non-ribosomally synthesized peptides, such as antibiotics; and all peptidic repeat units of larger polymers, such as fibrous and amyloid polymers. In addition, non-naturally occurring synthetic peptides with at least 24 residues will be accepted for deposition.

wwPDB FTP Advisory Notice
