lang="x-unicode">LEARNING OBJECTIVES <br>
<br>
Understand the basics of PDBx/mmCIF data dictionary and file
format that underpin archiving of more than 200,000 experimentally
determined three-dimensional biostructures in the PDB. Learn about
software tools for generating and working with PDBx/mmCIF files,
and programmatic access for harvesting PDB data. Main topics: <br>
<br>
* PDBx/mmCIF format description and examples <br>
* PDBx/mmCIF data model <br>
* Software tools for generating, editing, and visualizing
PDBx/mmCIF files <br>
* PDBx/mmCIF dictionary extensions, including ModelCIF for
computed <br>
structure models (CSM) from AI/ML <br>
* Parsing data from PDBx/mmCIF files for your research <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>WHO SHOULD ATTEND </b><br>
<br>
Professionals and graduate students interested in learning about
strategies to take full advantage of PDB data in the fields of: <br>
<br>
* Structural biology <br>
* Cheminformatics and computational chemistry <br>
* Bioinformatics and computational biology <br>
