mmcif_pdbx

This repository houses the dictionaries used by the wwPDB for maintaining the archive.

There are two dictionaries in use at this time:

  1. mmcif_pdbx_v5_next.dic is the internal dictionary in use by the wwPDB deposition system. This dictionary also contains extensions currently under development.

  2. mmcif_pdbx_v50.dic is the dictionary used to support the public archive.

The dictionaries are created by appending the different components (header, base, extensions) use the script scripts/Build.sh using as an argument the basename of the dictionary (e.g. mmcif_pdbx_v5_next). A Makefile is provided at the top level as well.
