Abstract: | The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the repository for three-dimensional structures of biological macromolecules, determined by
experimental methods. The data in the archive is free and easily available via the Internet from any of the worldwide centers
managing this global archive. These data are used by scientists, researchers, bioinformatics specialists, educators, students,
and general audiences to understand biological phenomenon at a molecular level. Analysis of this structural data also inspires
and facilitates new discoveries in science. This chapter describes the tools and methods currently used for deposition, processing,
and release of data in the PDB. References to future enhancements are also included.
