PDBsum provides an overview of every macromolecular structure deposited in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), giving schematic diagrams of the molecules in each structure and of the interactions between them.

This resource is a provider. This means that while it may have its own prefix, it actually reuses the identifiers provided by the pdb prefix. For all use cases, you should use pdb instead of pdbsum.

Provides

pdb

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 5 mappings to external registries for this resource with 5 unique external prefixes.

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier 1kfv is used to demonstrate the providers available for PDBsum; at-a-glance overview of macromolecular structures. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.

Additional providers curated in the Bioregistry are listed here. These are typically inherited from Identifiers.org or Prefix Commons, and need extra curation.
