Worldwide Protein Data Bank

The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is an archive of experimentally determined three-dimensional structures of biological macromolecules that serves a global community of researchers, educators, and students. The data contained in the archive include atomic coordinates, crystallographic structure factors and NMR experimental data. Aside from coordinates, each deposition also includes the names of molecules, primary and secondary structure information, sequence database references, where appropriate, and ligand and biological assembly information, details about data collection and structure solution, and bibliographic citations. The Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) consists of organizations that act as deposition, data processing and distribution centers for PDB data. Members are: RCSB PDB (USA), PDBe (Europe) and PDBj (Japan), and BMRB (USA). The wwPDB's mission is to maintain a single PDB archive of macromolecular structural data that is freely and publicly available to the global community.

蛋白质数据银行（PDB）系一个汇聚实验确定生物大分子三维结构的档案库，服务于全球的科研工作者、教育者和学生群体。该档案库中所包含的数据包括原子坐标、晶体学结构因子及核磁共振实验数据。除坐标之外，每项沉积还包括分子的名称、一级和二级结构信息、序列数据库的引用（如有），以及配体和生物组装信息，数据收集和结构解析的详细信息，以及相关的文献引用。全球蛋白质数据银行（wwPDB）由若干机构组成，这些机构作为PDB数据的沉积、数据处理和分发中心。成员包括：RCSB PDB（美国）、PDBe（欧洲）、PDBj（日本）以及BMRB（美国）。wwPDB的使命是维护一个单一的大分子结构数据PDB档案，该档案对全球社区免费且公开可用。
