COVID-19 featured content

The recent outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a serious threat to people all over the world. In order to understand and develop an effective drug against this virus (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2: SARS-CoV-2), structural work on the related proteins has already started and the resultant entries are accumulating in the PDB. PDBj provides a portal page for the COVID-19 related entries for our users. New entries will be added simultaneously with the public release from the wwPDB.

An explanation article covering one of the proteins of this virus is available on the "Molecules of the Month" page below:

• 242: Coronavirus Proteases
• 246: SARS-CoV-2 Spike
• 249: SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase

The tab "All entries" contains all PDB IDs, in case you want to check all independent entries, including group depositions by the same authors. The "Repr. entries" tab contains only representative PDB entries with the highest resolution, excluding duplicate entries with 100% amino acid sequence identitiy, even if they contain a different ligand. Finally, the "Latest entries" tab contains the latest entries released this week.
