What is PDBe?
Protein Data Bank in Europe (PDBe) is the structural biology resource within the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) which collects, organises and disseminates data on experimentally-determined biological macromolecular structures.
PDBe is a founding member of the worldwide PDB consortium (wwPDB) and is actively engaged in the deposition, annotation, remediation and dissemination of macromolecular structural data through the single global archive for such data – the Protein Data Bank (PDB; Figure 1).
