03 Mar 2021 More than 1,000 SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Protein Structures Now AvailableWith this week's update, 1018 SARS-CoV-2-related structures are now freely available from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The first SARS-CoV-2 structure, a high-resolution crystal structure of the coronavirus main protease (PDB 6lu7, shown below), was released early in the pandemic on February 5, 2020. |
07 Sep 2020 Congratulations to Olga Kennard on the award of the Ewald PrizeOn behalf of EMBL and PDBe, we would like to offer our warmest congratulations to Dr Olga Kennard OBE FRS on the award of the 12th Ewald Prize by the International Union of Crystallography.

27 Aug 2020 Superimposition and batch downloads added to the PDBe-KB aggregated viewsWe have introduced some major changes to the PDBe-KB aggregated views of proteins to allow easier in-depth analysis and comparison of protein structures. These changes include comprehensive batch file download options, superimposition and clustering of protein structures, and a raft of other features previously only available through the PDBe-KB COVID-19 portal. |

08 Jul 2020 Coming July 29: Improved Carbohydrate Data at the PDBPDB data will incorporate a new data representation for carbohydrates in PDB entries and reference data that improves the Findability and Interoperability of these molecules in macromolecular structures. In order to remediate and improve the representation of carbohydrates across the archive, the wwPDB has: |

06 May 2020 More download options and antibody annotations on the PDBe-KB COVID-19 pagesWe recently announced the new PDBe-KB COVID-19 data portal (pdbe.org/covid19), allowing users to easily access a wealth of structural data from the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We have now added annotations on antibody classifications and details of peptide inhibitor molecules to the interactions section. In addition, we have also extended the bulk download options to entries with specific ligands or macromolecular interactions. |

23 Apr 2020 Test the new sequence and ligand components at PDBe
We are delighted to offer two new components available for beta testing on our PDBe entry pages: the ProtVista sequence component on the PDBe macromolecules pages and the LigEnv component on the ligands and environments pages. Try the ProtVista component on our macromolecules page here. |

17 Apr 2020 Download service and similar proteins data added to PDBe-KB COVID-19 pagesWe recently announced the new PDBe-KB COVID-19 data portal, allowing users to easily access a wealth of structural data from the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We have now added more functionality to these pages, allowing bulk download of all relevant PDB structures and highlighting all the PDB entries with high sequence identity to SARS-CoV-2 proteins. |
