The structure section - Explore the protein structures of human proteins

The Structure section contains information about the three-dimensional structure of human proteins.The predicted 3D structure from the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database project is shown together with experimentally determined structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). All antigens with known sequence has been mapped and can be displayed on the protein structures. Additionally the amino acid positions of population variants and variants with known clinical relevance in the Ensembl variation database can be shown. More information about the specific content and the generation and analysis of the data in the section can be found in the Methods Summary.

Learn about:

  • the experimental and predicted 3D structure of proteins
  • the known missense variants with clinical significance
  • the known missense variants in the population
  • the antigen structure for the majority of the antibodies
