How to retrieve PDB files based on text search

Hello all,

I would like to retrieve to my local machine all the x-ray allergen PDB files from RCSB pdb website/ftp based on text search 'allergen' via command line in Ubuntu. Is there a systematic way to do this?

Cheers,

Andrew

pdb allergen bash

If you have just one search term then search it on their website and then select download all files.

Dear Andrew,

There is a site like you need,

http://degradolab.org/suns/

but it requires a lot of preliminary work.

I would start with search for 'allergen' here as @pb suggested:

http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/home/home.do#Category-welcome

select pdb-id numbers you like and then go to the first site.
