We have determined the three-dimensional structures of the protein of seven kinds of plants such as rice, and have put together the result and related informations. This database contains the basic information of the protein, that assumed Protein Data Bank a source of information, experimental methods used for the structure determination, literature information, sequence, the image of the three-dimensional structures, and so on.
A purpose of this study is to elucidate the correlation of "the three-dimensional structures and a function and phenotype of the protein" and the mechanisms of functional expression of the protein, in the resolving power of the atomic level, about the gene which is assumed to be important academically or agriculturally and industrially, utilizing gene information, full-length cDNA, and so on, which was provided by the rice genome project, for general elucidation of the rice plant function and development of a policy to use a useful gene effectively. In this site, you can search the three-dimensional structures of the protein listed by each plant.
