pdb_extract - Workstation Version

The pdb_extract Program Suite contains tools and examples for extracting mmCIF data from structure determination applications.

• Reduce the human effort required to assemble complete and validated protein structure entries ready for PDB deposition via ADIT.
• Faster preparation of your mmCIF file for deposition.
• Great for multiple structural depositions. The data template file can be re-used for each structure without re-entering the same information.

A pdb_extract manual is accessible via online and downloadable PDF detailing procedures concerning program installation and use.
