After February 1, 2008, deposition of experimental data is required along with all new entries. | ||
Many derivative databases '''copy, derive information from, or add value to''' the [[Atomic coordinate file | atomic coordinate files]] available from the wwPDB. Often, these automatically update their databases weekly, shortly after the new releases become available at the PDB. Proteopedia is one example. | Many derivative databases '''copy, derive information from, or add value to''' the [[Atomic coordinate file | atomic coordinate files]] available from the wwPDB.
