Dear all,
Maybe this is a naive question. I just noticed that proteins 2GSA and
4GSA have similar name and denote almost the same protein.
4gsa: CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF GLUTAMATE-1-SEMIALDEHYDE AMINOMUTASE
(AMINOTRANSFERASE) REDUCED WITH CYANOBOROHYDRATE
2gsa: CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF GLUTAMATE-1-SEMIALDEHYDE
AMINOMUTASE (AMINOTRANSFERASE, WILD-TYPE FORM)
Also, 2ae2 and 1ae1 denote similar proteins.
2ae2: TROPINONE REDUCTASE-II COMPLEXED WITH NADP+ AND PSEUDOTROPINE
1ae1: TROPINONE REDUCTASE-I COMPLEX WITH NADP
Would someone please tell me how PDB ID is defined? Given a list of
pdb ID, can I find biological distance merely based on their pdb IDs?
Thanks a lot.
