Biochemical Bits

A collection of Web servers and Gopher services related to structural biochemistry.

Molecules R Us: Use this to access the PDB Databank.
A flexible form interface to the Brookhaven Databank. This'll download the protein of your choice as text, an image or startup a client side viewer program such as Rasmol, which is complete with a manual.

The description of the PDB's Atomic Coordinate Entry Format Description which is going to change from 15 April 1996.

BIDS - requires password (Telnet Session).
The Biopages contain a guide to biomolecular (DNA, protein) W3 resources, including sequence and structural databases.
John Hopkins University Bioinformatics Web Server
Amongst the databases are:

OWL - a non-redundant protein sequence database which ties a number of databases together.
NRL_3D - a sequence-structure database.
EC-Enzyme - an enzyme classification database.

NCBI Entrez Browser.
Search a subset of Medline using via the forms interface, and via the nonforms interface.
Molecular Modelling Page at NIH
The NIH top W3 page.
NIH Molecular Biology Databases (Gopher Service).
The Protein Data Bank.
Structural Classification of Proteins.
Virology Resource Server - has some pictures and animations of viruses, a tutorial, topographical maps and other neat bits.
