This article gives step by step instructions for uploading an atomic coordinate file (a "molecule" or PDB file) for use in molecular scenes in Proteopedia.
This article assumes you are familiar with Proteopedia's Molecular Scene Authoring Tools (SAT). If you want to improve your familiarity with the SAT, the best place to start is with the Video Guides.
Don't upload files available from www.pdb.org
If the molecule you want to display is available from the Protein Data Bank, you don't need to upload it. In the load molecule dialog of the Molecular Scene Authoring Tools (SAT), simply give the PDB code, and Proteopedia will obtain the PDB file for you.
If you want to upload a modified version of a file available from the Protein Data Bank, please indicate the modification in the filename. For example, suppose you want to upload the PDB file for 2vaa, modified to include
