We are delighted to offer two new components available for beta testing on our PDBe entry pages: the ProtVista sequence component on the PDBe macromolecules pages and the LigEnv component on the ligands and environments pages.
Try the ProtVista component on our macromolecules page .
Try the new LigEnv component on our ligands and environments page .
ProtVista
The ProtVista sequence view component has replaced our previous sequence viewer on the PDBe macromolecules pages to help users interactively view sequence-related data alongside topology and 3D structure. This allows the display of much more data than was possible through our previous sequence viewer, with annotations including:
- Ligand binding sites
- Macromolecular interaction interfaces
- Sequence conservation
- Variants
- Functional and biophysical annotations, such as predicted binding sites, druggable pockets, backbone flexibility, and residue depth
LigEnv
The LigEnv component is a new, interactive component displaying views of ligand binding sites and will replace the static LigPlot image on our ligands and environments pages. The viewer displays atomic-level interactions between ligands and macromolecular binding sites, based on calculated interactions from Arpeggio software. The information displayed in the LigEnv component also interact with an adjacent Mol* viewer, allowing you to easily highlight key binding residues in the 3D structure.
