RCSB Protein Data Bank 1D3D module: displaying positional features on macromolecular assemblies

Motivation: Mapping positional features from one-dimensional (1D) sequences onto three-dimensional (3D) structures of biological macromolecules is a powerful tool to show geometric patterns of biochemical annotations and provide a better understanding of the mechanisms underpinning protein and nucleic acid function at the atomic level. Results: We present a new library designed to display fully customizable interactive views between 1D positional features of protein and/or nucleic acid sequences and their 3D structures as isolated chains or components of macromolecular assemblies.

Automated summary

This article presents a new library that allows for customizable interactive views between the positional features of protein and nucleic acid sequences and their 3D structures, providing researchers with a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the functions of biological macromolecules at the atomic level.
