Protein Structure Repository
This repository contains a 3D biomolecular structure file in PDB format (.ent).
It can be viewed and analyzed using molecular visualization tools such as PyMOL, RasMol, UCSF Chimera, or VMD.

File Included

  • pdb1hhu, pdb1kwf, pdb2fvy, pdb6rh4, pdb6rkn, pdb6roe, pdb6rqi, pdb6sbh, pdb8w8v A PDB structure file containing atomic coordinates of a protein.

How to View the Structure

🔹 Using PyMOL
