*The model files in the PDB FTP archive have been updated to V5.0 of
thePDBx/mmCIF dictionary
<http://mmcif.wwpdb.org/dictionaries/mmcif_pdbx_v50.dic/Index/>.Both
mmCIF <http://mmcif.wwpdb.org/dictionaries/mmcif_pdbx_v50.dic/Index/>and
XML formats have been updated. These files were providedpreviously
<https://www.wwpdb.org/news/news?year=2017#59089826d3b1d333029d4ea1>for
the community to review and test. There is no change to PDB format files
as PDB format is alegacy format
<https://www.wwpdb.org/documentation/file-formats-and-the-pdb>. These,
therefore, do not contain all of the remediated information. *
*
The changes to V5.0 include:
*
Improvedaudit
<http://mmcif.wwpdb.org/dictionaries/mmcif_pdbx_v50.dic/Groups/audit_group.html>categories
to capture details of changes to files down to the category level
for entry revisions.
*
Better organized data content
<http://mmcif.wwpdb.org/dictionaries/mmcif_pdbx_v50.dic/Groups/em_group.html>and
much more extensive metadata in model files for electron microscopy
derived models.
*
Corrected source organism and sequence references for each sequence
fragment in chimeric proteins.
*
Standardized data in several categories, including software name,
detector name and detector type.
The complete list of changes can be found at thewwPDB website
<https://www.wwpdb.org/documentation/remediation>.
Questions regarding V5.0 data should be sent to deposit-h...@mail.wwpdb.org.
