- Associating PDB files with Sequences
- Since Jalview 2.8.3, discovery of PDB Id associated to a sequence happens automatically when the "View Structure" option is selected

- Manual association of PDB files with Sequences
- To manually associate PDB files with a sequence, right click on a sequence
