So the origins of the PDB are different, but can someone explain to me why the PDB is not an NCBI resource? Not that RCSB is doing a bad job or anything, but issuing calls for management every few years can’t be productive
It's not as much a question of should it be (It's done fine as is), but more along the lines of why it isn't. Similar sources of funding, much the same status for structure as genbank has for sequences. Every structure tends to have an associated link in pubmed etc etc.
