The numbering of protein and nucleic acid sequences is arbitrary in structure files from the [[PDB|World Wide Protein Data Bank]] (PDB). Here are some examples. These PDB entries are not shown here. To explore these, the links below will display them in [[FirstGlance in Jmol]]. | The numbering of protein and nucleic acid sequences is arbitrary in structure files from the [[PDB|World Wide Protein Data Bank]] (PDB).

==Not Monotonic== | |||
Rarely, sequence numbers do not increase monotonically from N to C terminus. An example is [http://firstglance.jmol.org/fgij/fg.htm?4zwj 4zwj] [[4zwj]]<ref>Thanks to Rachel Kramer Green of RCSB.org for this example.</ref>. | |||
