The very first 3D biopolymer structures
The first three-dimensional structure of a biopolymer was the DNA model built by J. D. Watson and
F. H. C. Crick in 1953 taking into account fiber diffraction data provided by M. H. F. Wilkins and
others (Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, 1962). The very first single-crystal DNA structure
was resolved by Dickerson and co-workers (PDB code: 1bna).
The first three-dimensional protein structures (myoglobin and hemoglobin) were determined by
M. F. Perutz and J. C. Kendrew (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1962).
The entries included in the PDB (PDB codes: 1mbn and 2dhb) represent refined structures.
J. C. Kendrew had obtained a myoglobin structure at a resolution of 6 Å already in 1957.
A. Klug has contributed substantially to the development of electron microscopy. This method is
suitable for systems that cannot be crystallized (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1982). A. Klug has applied
this method primarily to virus structures (see for example, Finch, Klug, J. Mol. Biol. 1965, 13, 1-12).
The structure of the first membrane-bound protein (a photosynthetic reaction centre; PDB code: 1prc)
was resolved by J. Deisenhofer, R. Huber and H. Michel (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1988).
The first three-dimensional protein structure determined by NMR spectroscopy was proteinase IIa
inhibitor from bull seminal plasma (PDB codes: 1bus, 2bus). It was reported by K. Wüthrich
and co-workers in 1985 (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 2002).
Note, that in the early days of structural biology the PDB did not exist. It was created in 1970-1971.

1ofd:
Glutamate synthase
[2 chains with 1491/1507 amino acids each;
each chain consists of 3 domains according to SCOP]
Glutamate synthases (GltS) are crucial enzymes in ammonia assimilation in plants
and bacteria, where they catalyze the formation of two molecules of L-glutamate from
L-glutamine and 2-oxoglutarate. The plant-type ferredoxin-dependent GltS and the
functionally homologous alpha subunit of the bacterial NADPH-dependent GltS are
complex four-domain monomeric enzymes of 140-165 kDa belonging to the
NH(2)-terminal nucleophile family of amidotransferases. The enzymes function through
the channeling of ammonia from the N-terminal amidotransferase domain to the
FMN-binding domain.
 Entries with largest number of chains:
1otz/1p0t
Baff-baff-R complex
[60 chains, two PDB files required]
B-cell activating factor (BAFF) is a key regulator of B-lymphocyte development.
Its biological role is mediated by the specific receptors BCMA, TACI and BAFF-R.
The cysteine-rich domain (CRD) of the BAFF-R extracellular domain adopts a
beta-hairpin structure and binds to the virus-like BAFF cage in a 1:1 molar ratio.
 Entry with largest number of models:
1e9t:
Human intestinal trefoil factor [NMR structure with 85 models]
Human intestinal trefoil factor, hITF, a secretory polypeptide found mainly in the
human gastrointestinal tract, is a member of the newly characterized trefoil factor or
P-domain peptide family representing putative growth factors.
PDB extremes: small peptide (peptaibol alamethicin, chain A, 1amt)
Three structural characteristics define the group of polypeptides
known as peptaibols:
A short chain length, typically between 15 and 20 residues,
although shorter ones are known.
A high proportion of the amino acid residues are non-standard.
There is a particular propensity for Aminoisobutyric acid (Aib).
The chain has an alkyl N terminus (usually acetyl) and a hydroxy-amino acid
at the C terminus.
Peptaibols generally exhibit antimicrobial activity and are referred to as
antibiotic peptides. The main sources of the peptaibols known to date are
fungii of the genre Trichoderma and Emericellopsis
The antomicrobial activity is thought to arise from the peptaibols'
membrane activity and their ability to form pores in lipid membranes.
The pores so formed are able to conduct ionic species; this conductance
leads to the loss of osmotic balance and cell death.
Along with Aib, non standard residues which have been observed include
Isovaline (Iva), Hydroxyproline (Hyp) and Ethylnorvaline (Etnor).
Aminoisobutyric acid has a high tendency to form helices and this is borne out
by the helical structures of the peptaibols.

Jena structures: Macrophage infectivity potentiator protein (1fd9)
The human pathogen Legionella pneumophila,
the etiological agent of the severe and often fatal
Legionnaires' disease, produces a major virulence factor,
termed 'macrophage infectivity potentiator protein' (Mip),
that is necessary for optimal multiplication of the bacteria
within human alveolar macrophages.
Mip exhibits a peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase)
activity, which appears to be important for infection.
