BioMagResBank (BMRB) as a partner in the Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB): new policies affecting biomolecular NMR depositions.

Journal of biomolecular NMR | 2008

We describe the role of the BioMagResBank (BMRB) within the Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) and recent policies affecting the deposition of biomolecular NMR data. All PDB depositions of structures based on NMR data must now be accompanied by experimental restraints. A scheme has been devised that allows depositors to specify a representative structure and to define residues within that structure found experimentally to be largely unstructured. The BMRB now accepts coordinate sets representing three-dimensional structural models based on experimental NMR data of molecules of biological interest that fall outside the guidelines of the Protein Data Bank (i.e., the molecule is a peptide with 23 or fewer residues, a polynucleotide with 3 or fewer residues, a polysaccharide with 3 or fewer sugar residues, or a natural product), provided that the coordinates are accompanied by representation of the covalent structure of the molecule (atom connectivity), assigned NMR chemical shifts, and the structural restraints used in generating model. The BMRB now contains an archive of NMR data for metabolites and other small molecules found in biological systems.

This is a list of tools and resources that we have found mentioned in this publication.


Biological Magnetic Resonance Data Bank (BMRB) (tool)

RRID:SCR_002296

Public depository that collects, annotates, archives, and disseminates important spectral and quantitative data derived from nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic investigations of biological macromolecules and metabolites. Provides reference information and maintains a collection of NMR pulse sequences and computer software for biomolecular NMR.

Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB) (tool)

RRID:SCR_006555

Public global Protein Data Bank archive of macromolecular structural data overseen by organizations that act as deposition, data processing and distribution centers for PDB data. Members are: RCSB PDB (USA), PDBe (Europe) and PDBj (Japan), and BMRB (USA). This site provides information about services provided by individual member organizations and about projects undertaken by wwPDB. Data available via websites of its member organizations.

Cambridge Structural Data Base (tool)

RRID:SCR_007310

It records bibliographic, chemical and crystallographic information for organic molecules and metal-organic compounds whose 3D structures have been determined using X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction.
The CSD records results of single crystal studies and powder diffraction studies which yield 3D atomic coordinate data for at least all non-H atoms. In some cases the CCDC is unable to obtain coordinates, and incomplete entries are archived to the CSD.
The CSD includes crystal structure data arising from:
* publications in the open literature
* Private Communications to the CSD (via direct data deposition)
The Cambridge Structural Database System (CSDS) is a single product that comprises the following components: The Cambridge Structural Database (CSD); CSDS Software: search and information retrieval (ConQuest), structure visualization (Mercury), statistical analysis of retrieved data (VISTA), and software for database creation (PreQuest); Knowledge bases derived from the CSD: Mogul (intramolecular geometry) and IsoStar (intermolecular interactions, including data from the PDB).
Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) is the world repository of small-molecule crystal structures. For example, the crystal structures supported by the National Institute on Drug Abuse are deposited here.
