General information

URL: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbsum
Full name: Pictorial database of 3D structures in the Protein Data Bank
Description: PDBsum is a pictorial database that provides an at-a-glance overview of the contents of each 3D structure deposited in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). It shows the molecule(s) that make up the structure (ie protein chains, DNA, ligands and metal ions) and schematic diagrams of the interactions between them.

PDBsum1: A standalone program for generating PDBsum analyses. [PMID: 36251626]
Roman A Laskowski

PDBsum1 is a standalone set of programs to perform the same structural analyses as provided by the PDBsum web server (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbsum). The server has pages for every entry in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and can also process user-uploaded PDB files, returning a password-protected set of pages that are retained for around 3 months. The standalone version described here allows for in-house processing and indefinite retention of the results. All data files and images are pre-generated, rather than on-the-fly as in the web version, so can be easily accessed. The program runs on Linux, Windows, and mac operating systems and is freely available for academic use at https://www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/software/PDBsum1.
