IMGT/3Dstructure-DB

IMGT/3Dstructure-DB [1-5] is part of IMGT, the international ImMunoGeneTics information system® http://www.imgt.org [6].

IMGT/3Dstructure-DB, created by LIGM (Université Montpellier II, CNRS), is the IMGT 3D structure database, on the Web since November 2001.

IMGT/3Dstructure-DB contains information on the sequences, 2D structures (or Colliers de Perles) and 3D structures of IG, TR and MHC and related proteins of the immune system (RPI) with known 3D structures, from human and other vertebrate species. Experimental 3D data are from PDB. Expertly annotated information is provided according to the IMGT-ONTOLOGY concepts and to the IMGT Scientific chart rules.
