Hi folks
many thanks for the replies - all very helpful.
I can see that my example of P01132 might have been taken as a protein that I
have a real current interest in - unfortunately, it isn’t (pace! to anyone who
is working on malaria), it was just the first example I found that had no
struc
Hi Harry,
A useful starting point when looking for the 'best' [insert criteria
here] structure in the PDB for a specific protein is to visit the
PDBe-KB aggregated views pages (https://pdbekb.org). These pages group
PDB data based upon UniProt accession and the 'structures' tab on these
pages
Hi Harry,
My advice would be to use one of those new-fangled predicted models. You can
find a model in the AlphaFold database at the EBI
(https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/entry/P01132). If you look at it, there are parts
(likely corresponding to the constructs that were crystallised) that look
conf
Hi Harry
First off I would look at quality metrics. For the structures from the same
paper you will need to check what the differences are in the paper and choose
what’s closest to what you have need (experimental conditions etc) assuming
they all have similar quality
As a secondary priority y
Hi folks
I was wondering.
If there is a UniProt entry (for example, P01132, but there are plenty of
others) for which I want the “best” (whatever that might mean) representative
_experimental_ structure (i.e. not one of these new-fangled predicted models
