Usage Examples

Example 1: Finding Experimental Structures

  1. Select “Experimental Structure” from the sub-navigation bar
  2. Search for “insulin” in the protein name filter
  3. Filter by resolution (e.g., < 2.0 Å) for high-quality structures
  4. Click on a structure ID to view detailed information

Example 2: Exploring Predicted Structures

  1. Switch to “Predicted Structure” tab
  2. Search for a protein of interest by name or ID
  3. Filter by confidence score (e.g., > 0.8) for reliable predictions
  4. View the 3D structure and download for further analysis
