PDB_REDO

PDB_REDO is a computer tool that improves the quality of 3D models of proteins stored in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Scientists use techniques like X-ray crystallography to determine protein structures, but these models can sometimes be imprecise. PDB_REDO takes these existing models and automatically refines them, correcting errors and enhancing details, which helps researchers better understand how proteins work. Essentially, it acts as an expert editor for protein structures, making them more accurate for scientific study and pharmaceutical development.
