                 Welcome to the wwPDB FTP archive
=====================================================================

The wwPDB (www.wwpdb.org) has collaborated on a project to remediate
the PDB archive and create a new set of corrected files providing  
access to data on the 3-D structure of biological macromolecules. 

For further information on the remediation project, please see the 
wwPDB home page at http://www.wwpdb.org.

As of July 31, 2007, the production wwPDB FTP archive will be the new 
remediated archive at ftp://ftp.wwpdb.org. The existing archive will 
remain as a frozen resource available for historical reference under 
its existing name (ftp://ftp.rcsb.org).  

Structure data is located in pub/pdb/data/structures.
 
Note: Users should switch to binary mode before downloading data files.

Please see the README file for further details.
