Abstract:
The Protein Data Bank (PDB) contains a wealth of structural and functional knowledge about proteins, RNA, DNA, and other macromolecules, and their assemblies and complexes with small molecules. The challenge faced by the providers of PDB data is to make this knowledge accessible to an increasingly large and diverse audience, ranging from expert structural biologists to non-specialist consumers of structural information. Educators, students, and general audiences will have their own specific interests and expectations from molecular structure data. For a general user, a 2D image of hemoglobin illustrates how a protein looks at a microscopic level. For high school students and educators, 3D models or computer graphics can show how one or a few specific proteins can assemble into an icosahedral virus. In contrast, PhD and post-doc level researchers require expert guidance on how to critically assess the quality of structural data, and in-depth training on the use of specialist tools and resources for the comparison and analysis of structures. The PDB archive is managed by members of the Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB): the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics Protein Data Bank (RCSB PDB; rcsb.org), Protein Data Bank in Europe (PDBe; pdbe.org), Protein Data Bank Japan (PDBj), and BioMagResBank (BMRB, bmrb.wisc.edu). In addition to managing and distributing structural data, the wwPDB partners are engaged in numerous outreach initiatives and user training programs. These efforts are vital to ensuring that these uniquely valuable data can be effectively accessed and used by research scientists, students, and educators alike. This talk will describe on-going wwPDB outreach efforts and highlight exciting new initiatives at the RCSB PDB, PDBe and PDBj.

The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the largest available repository of solved protein structures and contains a wealth of information on successful crystallization. Many centres have used their own experimental data to draw conclusions about proteins and the conditions in which they crystallize. Here, data from the PDB were used to reanalyse some of these results. The most successful crystallization reagents were identified, the link between solution pH and the isoelectric point of the protein was investigated and the possibility of predicting whether a protein will crystallize was explored.

Abstract:
As the crystal structures of biological macromolecules were being determined, a new field of structural biology was born. Inspired by these new structures, the scientific community worked to establish a home to archive and share the data emerging from these experiments. The Protein Data Bank (PDB) was established in 1971 with seven structures. The PDB provides a repository for scientists who generate the data, and an access point for researchers and students to find the information needed to drive additional studies. Today, the PDB contains and supports online access to ~100,000 biomacromolecules that help researchers understand aspects of biology, including medicine, agriculture, and biological energy. The ways in which the interrelationships among science, technology, and community have driven the evolution of the PDB resource for more than forty years will be discussed. The PDB archive is managed by the Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwpdb.org), whose members are the RCSB PDB, PDBe, PDBj and BMRB.

Abstract:
The Protein Data Bank (PDB) was established at Brookhaven National Laboratories in 1971 as an archive for biological macromolecular crystal structures. In mid 2021, the database has almost 180,000 structures solved by X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance, cryo-electron microscopy, and other methods. Many proteins have been studied under different conditions, including binding partners such as ligands, nucleic acids, or other proteins; mutations, and post-translational modifications, thus enabling extensive comparative structure-function studies. However, these studies are made more difficult because authors are allowed by the PDB to number the amino acids in each protein sequence in any manner they wish. This results in the same protein being numbered differently in the available PDB entries. For instance, some authors may include N-terminal signal peptides or the N-terminal methionine in the sequence numbering and others may not. In addition to the coordinates, there are many fields that contain structural and functional information regarding specific residues numbered according to the author. Here we provide a webserver and Python3 application that fixes the PDB sequence numbering problem by replacing the author numbering with numbering derived from the corresponding UniProt sequences. We obtain this correspondence from the SIFTS database from PDBe. The server and program can take a list of PDB entries or a list of UniProt identifiers (e.g., “P04637” or “P53_HUMAN”) and provide renumbered files in mmCIF format and the legacy PDB format for both asymmetric unit files and biological assembly files provided by PDBe.

Abstract:
Amino acid repeats play significant roles in the evolution of structure and function of many large proteins. Analysis of internal repeats of protein with known structure helps to understand the importance of repeats of the protein. A database IR-PDB for repeats in sequence of the proteins in the PDB has been developed for the analysis of impact of repeats in proteins. Using the state of the art repeat detection method RADAR, internal repeats in 148202 sequences out of 285714 sequences belonging to 115031 PDB structures were detected. The identified sequence repeats were annotated with secondary structural information with a view to analyze the structural consequence and conservation of the repeats. The tertiary structure of the repeats and their functional involvements can be found out through web links to PDB, PDBsum and Pfam. IR-PDB is systematically annotated for the the proteins in the PDB with sequence repeats and their structure with the possibility to access the dataset interactively through web services.

Analogously, the Electron Microscopy Data Bank (EMDB) is managed by the EMDataBank (emdatabank.org) organisation. A few years ago, realising the needs and opportunities to assess the quality of biomacromolecular structures deposited in the PDB, the wwPDB and EMDataBank partners established Validation Task Forces (VTFs) to advice them on up-to-date and community-agreed methods and standards to validate X-ray, NMR and 3DEM structures and data. All three VTFs have now published their recommendations (1, 2, 3) and these are getting implemented as validation-software pipelines . The pipelines are integrated in the new joint wwPDB deposition and annotation system (http://deposit.wwpdb.org/deposition/). In addition, stand-alone servers are provided to allow practising structural biologists to validate models prior to publication and deposition (http://wwpdb.org/validation-servers.html). The validation pipelines and the output they produce (human-readable PDF reports and machine-readable XML files) will be described.

Abstract:
Abstract Motivation The Protein Data Bank (PDB) currently holds over 140 000 biomolecular structures and continues to release new structures on a weekly basis. The PDB is an essential resource to the structural bioinformatics community to develop software that mine, use, categorize and analyze such data. New computational biology methods are evaluated using custom benchmarking sets derived as subsets of 3D experimentally determined structures and structural features from the PDB. Currently, such benchmarking features are manually curated with custom scripts in a non-standardized manner that results in slow distribution and updates with new experimental structures. Finally, there is a scarcity of standardized tools to rapidly query 3D descriptors of the entire PDB. Results Our solution is the Lemon framework, a C++11 library with Python bindings, which provides a consistent workflow methodology for selecting biomolecular interactions based on user criterion and computing desired 3D structural features. This framework can parse and characterize the entire PDB in <10 min on modern, multithreaded hardware. The speed in parsing is obtained by using the recently developed MacroMolecule Transmission Format to reduce the computational cost of reading text-based PDB files. The use of C++ lambda functions and Python bindings provide extensive flexibility for analysis and categorization of the PDB by allowing the user to write custom functions to suite their objective. We think Lemon will become a one-stop-shop to quickly mine the entire PDB to generate desired structural biology features. Availability and implementation The Lemon software is available as a C++ header library along with a PyPI package and example functions at https://github.com/chopralab/lemon.

We optimized five existing sets of force-field parameters for protein systems by our recently proposed method. The five force fields are AMBER parm94, AMBER parm96, AMBER parm99, CHARMM version 22, and OPLS-AA. The method consists of minimizing the sum of the square of the force acting on each atom in the proteins with the structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). We selected the partial-charge and backbone torsion-energy parameters for this optimization, and 100 molecules from the PDB were used. We gave detailed comparisons of the optimized force fields and found that there is a tendency of convergence towards the same function for the torsion-energy term.

Abstract:
Abstract Summary Structures in PDB tend to contain errors. This is a very serious issue for authors that rely on such potentially problematic data. The community of structural biologists develops validation methods as countermeasures, which are also included in the PDB deposition system. But how are these validation efforts influencing the structure quality of subsequently published data? Which quality aspects are improving, and which remain problematic? We developed ValTrendsDB, a database that provides the results of an extensive exploratory analysis of relationships between quality criteria, size and metadata of biomacromolecules. Key input data are sourced from PDB. The discovered trends are presented via precomputed information-rich plots. ValTrendsDB also supports the visualization of a set of user-defined structures on top of general quality trends. Therefore, ValTrendsDB enables users to see the quality of structures published by selected author, laboratory or journal, discover quality outliers, etc. ValTrendsDB is updated weekly.

Abstract:
In this article, we present a method for the enhanced molecular dynamics simulation of protein and DNA systems called potential of mean force (PMF)-enriched sampling. The method uses partitions derived from the potentials of mean force, which we determined from DNA and protein structures in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). We define a partition function from a set of PDB-derived PMFs, which efficiently compensates for the error introduced by the assumption of a homogeneous partition function from the PDB datasets. The bias based on the PDB-derived partitions is added in the form of a hybrid Hamiltonian using a renormalization method, which adds the PMF-enriched gradient to the system depending on a linear weighting factor and the underlying force field. We validated the method using simulations of dialanine, the folding of TrpCage, and the conformational sampling of the Dickerson–Drew DNA dodecamer. Our results show the potential for the PMF-enriched simulation technique to enrich the conformational space of biomolecules along their order parameters, while we also observe a considerable speed increase in the sampling by factors ranging from 13.1 to 82. The novel method can effectively be combined with enhanced sampling or coarse-graining methods to enrich conformational sampling with a partition derived from the PDB.

Abstract:
We created a new library of disordered patterns and disordered residues in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). To obtain such datasets, we clustered the PDB and obtained the groups of chains with different identities and marked disordered residues. We elaborated a new procedure for finding disordered patterns and created a new version of the library. This library includes three sets of patterns: unique patterns, patterns consisting of two kinds of amino acids, and homo-repeats. Using this database, the user can: (1) find homologues in the entire Protein Data Bank; (2) perform a statistical analysis of disordered residues in protein structures; (3) search for disordered patterns and homo-repeats; (4) search for disordered regions in different chains of the same protein; (5) download clusters of protein chains with different identity from our database and library of disordered patterns; and (6) observe 3D structure interactively using MView. A new library of disordered patterns will help improve the accuracy of predictions for residues that will be structured or unstructured in a given region.

Abstract:
There is an increasing realisation that the quality of the biomacromolecular structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) archive needs to be assessed critically using established and powerful validation methods. The Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) organization has convened several Validation Task Forces (VTFs) to advise on the methods and standards that should be used to validate all of the entries already in the PDB as well as all structures that will be deposited in the future. The recommendations of the X-ray VTF are currently being implemented in a software pipeline. Here, ongoing work on this pipeline is briefly described as well as ways in which validation-related information could be presented to users of structural data.

Abstract:
The number of available protein structures in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) has considerably increased in recent years. Thanks to the growth of structures and complexes, numerous large-scale studies have been done in various research areas, e.g., protein–protein, protein–DNA, or in drug discovery. While protein redundancy was only simply managed using simple protein sequence identity threshold, the similarity of protein-ligand complexes should also be considered from a structural perspective. Hence, the protein-ligand duplicates in the PDB are widely known, but were never quantitatively assessed, as they are quite complex to analyze and compare. Here, we present a specific clustering of protein-ligand structures to avoid bias found in different studies. The methodology is based on binding site superposition, and a combination of weighted Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) assessment and hierarchical clustering. Repeated structures of proteins of interest are highlighted and only representative conformations were conserved for a non-biased view of protein distribution. Three types of cases are described based on the number of distinct conformations identified for each complex. Defining these categories decreases by 3.84-fold the number of complexes, and offers more refined results compared to a protein sequence-based method. Widely distinct conformations were analyzed using normalized B-factors. Furthermore, a non-redundant dataset was generated for future molecular interactions analysis or virtual screening studies.

Abstract:
As the number of macromolecular structures in the worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) continues to grow rapidly, more attention is being paid to the quality of its data, especially for use in aggregated structural and dynamics analyses. In this study, we systematically analyzed 3.5 Å regions around all metal ions across all PDB entries with supporting electron density maps available from the PDB in Europe. All resulting metal ion-centric regions were evaluated with respect to four quality-control criteria involving electron density resolution, atom occupancy, symmetry atom exclusion, and regional electron density discrepancy. The resulting list of metal binding sites passing all four criteria possess high regional structural quality and should be beneficial to a wide variety of downstream analyses. This study demonstrates an approach for the pan-PDB evaluation of metal binding site structural quality with respect to underlying X-ray crystallographic experimental data represented in the available electron density maps of proteins. For non-crystallographers in particular, we hope to change the focus and discussion of structural quality from a global evaluation to a regional evaluation, since all structural entries in the wwPDB appear to have both regions of high and low structural quality.

Abstract:
The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the most important depository of protein structural information, containing more than 45,000 deposited entries today. Because of its inhomogeneous structure, its fully automated processing is almost impossible. In a previous work, we cleaned and re-structured the entries in the Protein Data Bank, and from the result we have built the RS-PDB database. Using the RS-PDB database, we draw a Ramachandran-plot from 6,593 "perfect" polypeptide chains found in the PDB, containing 1,192,689 residues. This is a more than tenfold increase in the size of data analyzed before this work. The density of the data points makes it possible to draw a logarithmic heat map enhanced Ramachandran map, showing the fine inner structure of the right-handed α-helix region.

Abstract:
This article describes the development of a curated online protein block sequence database, PDB-2-PB. The protein block sequences for protein structures with complete backbone coordinates have been encoded using the encoding procedure of de Brevern, Etchebest & Hazout [Proteins(2000),41, 271–287]. In the current release of the PDB-2-PB database (version 1.0), the protein entries from a recent release of the World Wide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB), which has 74 297 solved PDB entries as of 7 July 2011, have been used as a primary source. The PDB-2-PB database stores the protein block sequences for all the chains present in a protein structure. PDB-2-PB version 1.0 has the curated protein block sequences for 103 252 PDB chain entries (93 547 X-ray, 7033 NMR and 2672 other experimental chain entries). From the PDB-2-PB database, users can extract the curated protein block sequence and its corresponding amino acid sequence, which is extracted from the PDB ATOM records. Users can download these sequences either by using the PDB code or by using various parameters listed in the database. The PDB-2-PB database is freely available at http://bioinfo.bdu.ac.in/~pb/.

Abstract:
Calculation of structural features of proteins, nucleic acids, and nucleic acid-protein complexes on the basis of their geometries and studying various interactions within these macromolecules, for which high-resolution structures are stored in Protein Data Bank (PDB), require parsing and extraction of suitable data stored in text files. To perform these operations on large scale in the face of the growing amount of macromolecular data in public repositories, we propose to perform them in the distributed environment of Azure Data Lake and scale the calculations on the Cloud. In this paper, we present dedicated data extractors for PDB files that can be used in various types of calculations performed over protein and nucleic acids structures in the Azure Data Lake. Results of our tests show that the Cloud storage space occupied by the macromolecular data can be successfully reduced by using compression of PDB files without significant loss of data processing efficiency. Moreover, our experiments show that the performed calculations can be significantly accelerated when using large sequential files for storing macromolecular data and by parallelizing the calculations and data extractions that precede them. Finally, the paper shows how all the calculations can be performed in a declarative way in U-SQL scripts for Data Lake Analytics.

Abstract:
Abstract The Protein Data Bank in Europe-Knowledge Base (PDBe-KB, https://pdbe-kb.org) is a community-driven, collaborative resource for literature-derived, manually curated and computationally predicted structural and functional annotations of macromolecular structure data, contained in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The goal of PDBe-KB is two-fold: (i) to increase the visibility and reduce the fragmentation of annotations contributed by specialist data resources, and to make these data more findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) and (ii) to place macromolecular structure data in their biological context, thus facilitating their use by the broader scientific community in fundamental and applied research. Here, we describe the guidelines of this collaborative effort, the current status of contributed data, and the PDBe-KB infrastructure, which includes the data exchange format, the deposition system for added value annotations, the distributable database containing the assembled data, and programmatic access endpoints. We also describe a series of novel web-pages—the PDBe-KB aggregated views of structure data—which combine information on macromolecular structures from many PDB entries. We have recently released the first set of pages in this series, which provide an overview of available structural and functional information for a protein of interest, referenced by a UniProtKB accession.

Abstract:
The Protein Data Bank (PDB) constitutes a collection of the available atomic models of macromolecules and their complexes obtained by various methods used in structural biology, but chiefly by crystallography. It is an indispensable resource for all branches of science that deal with the structures of biologically active molecules, such as structural biology, bioinformatics, the design of novel drugs etc. Since not all users of the PDB are familiar with the methods of crystallography, it is important to present the results of crystallographic analyses in a form that is easy to interpret by nonspecialists. It is advisable during the submission of structures to the PDB to pay attention to the optimal placement of molecules within the crystal unit cell, to the correct representation of oligomeric assemblies and to the proper selection of the space-group symmetry. Examples of significant departures from these principles illustrate the potential for the misinterpretation of such suboptimally presented crystal structures.

Our protein block (PB) sequence database PDB-2-PBv1.0 provides PB sequences and dihedral angles for 74,297 protein structures comprising of 103,252 protein chains of Protein Data Bank (PDB) as on 2011. Since there are a lot of practical applications of PB and also as the size of PDB database increases, it becomes necessary to provide the PB sequences for all PDB protein structures. The current updated PDB-2-PBv3.0 contains PB sequences for 147,602 PDB structures comprising of 400,355 protein chains as on October 2019. When compared to our previous version PDB-2-PBv1.0, the current PDB-2-PBv3.0 contains 2- and 4-fold increase in the number of protein structures and chains, respectively. Notably, it provides PB information for any protein chain, regardless of the missing atom records of protein structure data in PDB. It includes protein interaction information with DNA and RNA along with their corresponding functional classes from Nucleic Acid Database (NDB) and PDB. Now, the updated version allows the user to download multiple PB records by parameter search and/or by a given list. This database is freely accessible at http://bioinfo.bdu.ac.in/pb3 .

Abstract:
Intrinsically disordered protein regions are commonly defined from missing electron density in X-ray structures. Experimental evidence for long disorder regions (LDRs) of at least 30 residues was so far limited to manually curated proteins. Here, we describe a comprehensive and large-scale analysis of experimental LDRs for 3133 unique proteins, demonstrating an increasing coverage of intrinsic disorder in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) in the last decade. The results suggest that long missing residue regions are a good quality source to annotate intrinsically disordered regions and perform functional analysis in large data sets. The consensus approach used to define LDRs allows to evaluate context dependent disorder and provide a common definition at the protein level.

Abstract:
Protein 3D structure is one of the main factors in reecting gene functions. The availability of protein structure data in Protein Data Bank (PDB) allows us to conduct gene function analysis based on protein structure data. However, the molecules in PDB, whose structures having been determined, are always not corresponding to a unique gene. That is to say, the mapping from a gene to the PDB is not one-to-one. This feature complicates the situation and increases the difculty of gene function analysis. In this paper, we attempt to tackle this problem and also study the problem of predicting gene function from protein structures based on the gene-PDB mapping. We rst obtain the gene-PDB mapping, which is used to represent a gene by the structure set of all its corresponding PDB molecules. We then dene a new gene-gene similarity measurement based on the structure similarity between PDB molecules, and we further show that this new measurement matches with the gene functional similarity. This means that the measurement we dened here can be used effectively for gene function prediction.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Protein Data Bank (PDB) undergoes an exponential expansion in terms of the number of macromolecular structures deposited every year. A pivotal question is how this rapid growth of structural information improves the quality of three-dimensional models constructed by contemporary bioinformatics approaches. To address this problem, we performed a retrospective analysis of the structural coverage of a representative set of proteins using remote homology detected by COMPASS and HHpred. We show that the number of proteins whose structures can be confidently predicted increased during a 9-year period between 2005 and 2014 on account of the PDB growth alone. Nevertheless, this encouraging trend slowed down noticeably around the year 2008 and has yielded insignificant improvements ever since. At the current pace, it is unlikely that the protein structure prediction problem will be solved in the near future using existing template-based modeling techniques. Therefore, further advances in experimental structure determination, qualitatively better approaches in fold recognition, and more accurate template-free structure prediction methods are desperately needed.

Abstract:
Inherent protein flexibility, poor or low-resolution diffraction data or poorly defined electron-density maps often inhibit the building of complete structural models during X-ray structure determination. However, recent advances in crystallographic refinement and model building often allow completion of previously missing parts. This paper presents algorithms that identify regions missing in a certain model but present in homologous structures in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), and `graft' these regions of interest. These new regions are refined and validated in a fully automated procedure. Including these developments in the PDB-REDO pipeline has enabled the building of 24 962 missing loops in the PDB. The models and the automated procedures are publicly available through the PDB-REDO databank and webserver. More complete protein structure models enable a higher quality public archive but also a better understanding of protein function, better comparison between homologous structures and more complete data mining in structural bioinformatics projects.

Abstract:
A program package has been assembled for the analysis of protein coordinates which are in the Brookhaven Protein Data Bank (PDB) format. These programs can be used to make two types of φ–ψ plots: a Ramachandran-style scatter plot, and a plot of φ and ψ values as a function of the linear sequence. Programs are also available for the display of distance diagonal plots for proteins. Two protein structures can be compared and the resulting r.m.s. differences in the structures plotted as a function of sequence. Temperature factors can be analyzed and plotted as a function of the linear sequence. In addition, various utilities are supplied for splitting PDB files which contain multiple subunits into individual files and also for renumbering PDB files. A utility is also provided for converting Amber-style PDB files into standard PDB files. Priestle's program RIBBON [J. Appl. Cryst. (1988), 21, 572–576] has been converted to run in a stand-alone mode with interactive rotation of the three-dimensional ribbon picture. Programs are Silicon Graphics four-dimensional level and have been tested on 4D70/GT and personal Iris workstations, although programs which give Postscript output have been converted to run on Digital Equipment Corporation VAX computers and Sun workstations.
