Many derivative databases '''copy, derive information from, or add value to''' the [[Atomic coordinate file | atomic coordinate files]] available from the wwPDB.
==New Releases Cycle==
The wwPDB releases new entries once per week. These can be seen by clicking on the most recent release date, shown at the upper right of the main page at [http://pdb.org].
