PROBLEM 2
- Go to the SCOP Web site, also reachable by a Web search.
- Go to the top of the structural hierarchy and note the links to a more detailed classification of the protein structural classes. The first icon of the three shown for each class will be an image model that can be viewed by the browser.
- Follow the hierarchy to lower and lower levels, eventually reaching a link to a Protein Data Bank (PDB) entry. PDB files are large tables that give atomic coordinates of atoms in proteins and other information and may be downloaded and viewed as described below.
- There are a number of display programs for viewing PDB files. We will use Rasmol. Choose two PDB files for downloading and viewing by Rasmol. (Note that the PDB identification code is a combination of numbers and letters, e.g., 1gc1.)
