The [http://www.wwpdb.org World Wide Protein Data Bank] (wwPDB) is the internationally recognized sole repository of all published empirically determined macromolecular three-dimensional (3D) structure data. 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) is the internationally recognized sole repository of all published, empirically-determined macromolecular three-dimensional (3D) structure data.
