The Protein Data Bank (PDB) was established in 1971 as a repository for the three dimensional structures of biological macromolecules. Since then, more than 85000 biological macromolecule structures have been determined and made available in the PDB archive. Through analysis of the corpus of data, it is possible to identify trends that can be used to inform us abou the future of structural biology and to plan the best ways to improve the management of the ever-growing amount of PDB data.
蛋白质数据库(PDB)成立于 1971 年,是生物大分子三维结构的存储库。自那时以来,已有超过 85000 种生物大分子结构在 PDB 档案中确定并提供。通过对该数据体的分析,可以识别出趋势,从而为我们提供关于结构生物学未来的信息,并规划出最佳方式来改进对不断增长的 PDB 数据的管理。
