The PDB

Search for GO and EC numbers at PDB...

The search options in the PDB structure database are as sophisticated as those at the NCBI. For now, we will try a simple keyword search to get us started.


Task:

  1. Visit the RCSB PDB website at http://www.pdb.org/
  2. Briefly orient yourself regarding the database contents and its information offerings and services.
  3. Enter Mbp1 into the search field.
  4. In your journal, note down the PDB IDs for the three Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mbp1 transcription factor structures your search has retrieved.
  5. Click on one of the entries and explore the information and services linked from that page.
