== What is mmdb? == | == What is mmdb? == | ||
MMDB is a macromolecular coordinate library, written by Eugene Krissinel primarily for use by CCP4 group. The Coordinate Library is designed to assist CCP4 developers in working with coordinate files. | |||
The Library features work with the primary file formats of the Protein Data Bank (PDB), the PDB file format and the mmCIF file format. | |||
The Library provides various high-level tools for working with coordinate files, which include not only reading and writing, but also orthogonal-fractional coordinate transforms, generation of symmetry mates, editing the molecular structure and some others. The Library is supposed as a general low-level tool for unifying the coordinate-related operations. | |||
The [[Clipper]]-MMDB interface package provides an interface to allow MMDB models to interact with other types of crystallographic data as part of a structure solution application. | |||
== How to install mmdb? == | |||
The easiest way for users of Linux distros is to install the Fedora 9 RPM package ([https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-package-announce/2008-November/msg00262.html announcement]). For Apple machines, this would probably be http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/mmdb . | |||
