A Protein Data Bank (PDB) data file for a protein structure contains only x, and z coordinates of atoms.(a) True(b) FalseThe question was asked during a job interview.I want to ask this question from Protein Structural Visualization in portion Structural Bioinformatics of Bioinformatics

Answer»

Right choice is (b) False

To EXPLAIN: Because a Protein Data Bank (PDB) data file for a protein structure contains only x, y, and z coordinates of atoms, the most basic requirement for a visualization PROGRAM is to build connectivity between atoms to make a VIEW of a MOLECULE. The visualization program should also be able to produce molecular structures in DIFFERENT styles, which include wire frames, balls and sticks, space-filling spheres, and ribbons.
