ModelArchive

From Proteopedia

ModelArchive is the archive for theoretical macromolecular structure models that are not based on experimental data (not empirical). Such models were removed from the wwPDB in 2006^[1]. ModelArchive complements the wwPDB archive of empirical models, and the PDB-Dev archive for integrative structures that combine non-empirical and empirical models.^[2]

Quoted from ModelArchive Help: "Any type of macromolecular structure which would otherwise be suitable for the PDB but whose coordinates are not based on experimental data can be deposited in ModelArchive." "The modelling methods can be pure in silico predictions as found in de novo models or based on experimental structures such as homology models or modified structures including docked ligands, modelled variants, post-translational modifications (e.g. glycosylated structures), etc."
