Viewing PDB Structures
- -Jalview can view protein structures associated with a sequence -via the "Structure→" submenu from a -sequence's pop-up menu.
-The following menu entries are provided for viewing structure data
-
+ Viewing PDB Structures +
+ Jalview can be used to view protein structures by following the steps + below: +If a single pdb -structure is selected, one of the following will happen:
+ -+ Structure data imported into Jalview can also be processed to + display secondary structure and temperature factor annotation. See + the Annotation from Structure page + for more information. +
-+ If a single PDB structure is selected, one of the + following will happen: +
-Associating PDB files with Sequences
-To associate PDB files with a sequence, right click on a sequence -ID and select "Structure→ Associate Structure with -Sequence", and one of the submenus:
+Importing PDB Entries or files in PDB format
-You can retrieve sequences from the PDB using the Sequence Fetcher. Any sequences retrieved with
-this service are automatically associated with their source database
-entry. For PDB sequences, simply select PDB as the database and enter
-your known PDB id (appended with ':' and a chain code, if desired).
-Jalview will also read PDB files directly. Simply load in the file as
-you would an alignment file. The sequences of any peptide chains will be
-extracted from the file and viewed in the alignment window.

-Associating a large number of PDB files to sequences
-in an alignment
It is often the case when working with
-structure alignments that you will have a directory of PDB files, and
-an alignment involving one or more of the structures. If you drag a
-number of PDB files onto an alignment in the Jalview desktop, Jalview
-will give you the option of associating PDB files with sequences that
-have the same filename. This means, for example, you can automatically
-associate PDB files with names like '1gaq.pdb' with sequences that
-have an ID like '1gaq'.
-
Note: This feature was added in Jalview 2.7
-
Note for jalview applet users:
-Due to the applet security constraints, PDB Files can currently only be
-imported by cut and paste of the PDB file text into the text box opened
-by the 'From File' entry of the structure menu.

Viewing the PDB Residue Numbering
-Sequences which have PDB entry or PDB file associations are annotated
-with sequence features from a group named with the associated PDB
-accession number or file name. Each feature gives the corresponding PDB
-Residue Number for each mapped residue in the sequence. The display of
-these features is controlled through the "View→Sequence
-Features" menu item and the Feature
-Settings dialog box.

Outstanding problem with cut'n'pasted
-files in Jalview 2.6 and Jalview 2.7
-Structures imported via the cut'n'paste dialog box will not be correctly
-highlighted or coloured when they are displayed in structure views,
-especially if they contain more than one PDB structure. See the bug
-report at http://issues.jalview.org/browse/JAL-623 for news on this problem.
