The [http://www.wwpdb.org World Wide Protein Data Bank] (wwPDB) is the internationally recognized sole repository of all published, empirically-determined atomic resolution macromolecular three-dimensional (3D) structure data. Founded in 1971 by Drs. Edgar Meyer and Walter Hamilton at [http://www.bnl.gov Brookhaven National Laboratory], management of the Protein Data Bank was headed by Tom Koestle until 1994 and then by [http://www.weizmann.ac.il/~joel Joel L. Sussman] till 1999, when it was transferred to members of the [http://home.rcsb.org/ Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB)]. Rutgers University is the lead site and is currently under the direction of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_M._Berman Helen M. Berman]. In 2008, it has three official branches: the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (USA), the European Bioinformatics Institute (UK), and the Protein Data Bank Japan. | The [http://www.wwpdb.org World Wide Protein Data Bank] (wwPDB)<ref>PMID: 14634627</ref><ref>PMID: 17142228</ref> is the internationally recognized sole repository of all published, empirically-determined atomic resolution macromolecular three-dimensional (3D) structure data.
