In December, 2023, the [[wwPDB]] announced that all 3-character ligand ID codes had been exhausted <ref name="nomore3s">[https://www.wwpdb.org/news/news?year=2023#656f4404d78e004e766a96c6 PDB Entries with Novel Ligands Now Distributed Only in PDBx/mmCIF and PDBML File Formats], wwPDB News, December 12, 2023.</ref>. Thereafter, new entries with novel ligands will be available only in mmCIF format, since the legacy PDB format cannot accommodate the new 5-character ligand IDs.
