Archive
• Archive of experimentally determined 3D structures of biological macromolecules.
• Established in 1971, by Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB),
Brookhaven National Laboratories, USA.
• Archive contain atomic coordinates, bibliographic citations, primary and secondary
structure information, crystallographic structure factors, NMR experimental data.

• It also check entries which should have Unit cell, space groups, chain IDs, TER
card (at the end of each chain)
• Time taken for validation depends upon the size of the structure.
