The European resource for the collection, organization and dissemination of data on biological macromolecular structures. In collaboration with the other worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) partners - the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB) and BioMagResBank (BMRB) in the USA and the Protein Data Bank of Japan (PDBj) - they work to collate, maintain and provide access to the global repository of macromolecular structure data. The main objectives of the work at PDBe are: * to provide an integrated resource of high-quality macromolecular structures and related data and make it available to the biomedical community via intuitive user interfaces. * to maintain in-house expertise in all the major structure-determination techniques (X-ray, NMR and EM) in order to stay abreast of technical and methodological developments in these fields, and to work with the community on issues of mutual interest (such as data representation, harvesting, formats and standards, or validation of structural data). * to provide high-quality deposition and annotation facilities for structural data as one of the wwPDB deposition sites. Several sophisticated tools are also available for the structural analysis of macromolecules.

Protein Data Bank (PDB) contains data on the spatial protein structures and their biologically active sites (i.e., ligand binding regions, enzyme catalytic centers, regions subjected to biochemical modifications, etc.). However, neither of the well known systems searching PDB does not provide the user with possibility to make the queries related with the active sites. A database PDBSITE storing the data on biologically active sites contained in the PDB database has been developed. PDBSITE accumulates amino acid content, structure features calculated by spatial protein structures, and physicochemical properties of sites and their spatial surroundings.

Engine and database to search the three-dimensional fragments within 3D RNA structures using as an input the sequence(s) and / or secondary structure(s) given in the dot-bracket notation. The database contains RNA sequences and secondary structures, described in the dot-bracket notation, derived from PDB-deposited RNA structures and their complexes. It also contains atom coordinates of the unmodified and modified nucleotide and nucleoside residues extracted from the PDB-deposited RNA structures, as well as torsion and pseudotorsion angle values, sugar pucker parameters and classification of base pair types given for the PBD-deposited RNA structures. Knowledge of the three dimensional RNA structure is crucial for all fields of biomolecular research. In contrast to the protein field, only about 1.300 experimentally derived structures of RNAs are deposited in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). To complement the results of experimental studies, new approaches based on bioinformatics and calculation are pursued in several laboratories to make tertiary RNA structure prediction possible. RNA FRABASE version 2.0 should greatly facilitate various RNA structure modelling approaches, RNA structure analysis and motif searching. If one compares the three dimensional RNA structure to a spatial puzzle, the RNA FRABASE allows to pull out a defined piece of this puzzle - the 3D RNA fragment. The architecture of the web-accessible RNA FRABASE engine and database is based on the following information path: PDB-deposited RNA structures �� RNA sequences and secondary structures described in the dot-bracket notation �� secondary structures of RNA fragments �� 3D RNA fragments. RNA FRABASE 2.0 also stores data and conformational parameters in order to provide on the spot structural filters to explore the three-dimensional RNA structures. An instant visualization of the 3D RNA structures is provided.

Database to search through the nucleic acid structures from the Protein Data Bank and examine structural motifs, including (a)symmetric internal loops, bulge loops, and hairpin loops. They have compiled over 2,000 three-dimensional structures, which can now be searched using different parameters, including PDB information, experimental technique, sequence, and motif type. RNA secondary structure is important for designing therapeutics, understanding protein-RNA binding and predicting tertiary structure of RNA. Several databases and downloadable programs exist that specialize in the three-dimensional (3D) structure of RNA, but none focus specifically on secondary structural motifs such as internal, bulge and hairpin loops. To create the RNA CoSSMos database, 2156 Protein Data Bank (PDB) files were searched for internal, bulge and hairpin loops, and each loop''''s structural information, including sugar pucker, glycosidic linkage, hydrogen bonding patterns and stacking interactions, was included in the database. False positives were defined, identified and reclassified or omitted from the database to ensure the most accurate results possible. Users can search via general PDB information, experimental parameters, sequence and specific motif and by specific structural parameters in the subquery page after the initial search. Returned results for each search can be viewed individually or a complete set can be downloaded into a spreadsheet to allow for easy comparison. The RNA CoSSMos database is updated weekly.

Database aimed at disseminating information on three-dimensional biopolymer structures with an emphasis on visualization and analysis. It provides access to all structure entries deposited at the Protein Data Bank (PDB) or at the Nucleic Acid Database (NDB). In addition, basic information on the architecture of biopolymer structures is available. The JenaLib intends to fulfill both scientific and educational needs. Authors who are willing to make available images or coordinates to the scientific community via the Image Library of Biological Macromolecules are requested to contact the author. A PDB/SWISS-PROT cross-reference database combines information from both PDB and SWISS-PROT, thus providing significantly more cross-references than either PDB or SWISS-PROT. The existing brief descriptions of X-ray, NMR and FTIR methods for structure determination are supplemented by information on circular dichroism.
