Outline of R&D

PDBj will be effectively updated and stably operated as a Japanese hub of Protein Data Bank (PDB) and Biological Magnetic Resonance Data Bank (BMRB) under the international agreement of worldwide PDB. We will also work to address the recently increasing new entries utilizing AI-based predicted template structures and help non-structural biologists to filter the entire archive for AI-based machine learning researches. Pre-calculated cavity information will be automatically annotated and also released upon weekly updates.
