Dear all,

The wwPDB releases entries under the following circumstances:

 * upon author’s request
 * upon publication
 * at the end of the hold period defined during submission (up to 1
   year) if no publication is available by that time

Contributions to public preprint archives that reference PDB, EMDB, or BMRB entry IDs are considered publications by the wwPDB and will therefore trigger release. For example, a PDB structure on hold for publication (status HPUB/HOLD) will be scheduled for release if the wwPDB finds a bioRxiv preprint with matching authors, title, and an entry ID code.

Publication dates and citation details are obtained through a combination of direct communications from authors, journals, and members of the scientific community (communicated via OneDep ordeposit-h...@mail.wwpdb.org) and PubMed searches (automated comparison of title and author lists included with the deposition and manual review for PDB, EMDB, and BMRB IDs).

Any concerns regarding this policy should be directed to the wwPDB leadership viadeposit-h...@mail.wwpdb.org.

Kind regards,

Deborah Harrus, on behalf of the wwPDB
