1DE5

1DE5 is a four-character alphanumeric code used as an accession number in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). In PDB parlance, 1DE5 identifies a specific macromolecular structure entry that was deposited and curated by researchers. The PDB assigns such codes to entries representing proteins, nucleic acids, complexes, and related macromolecules, and the codes may be revised as new data become available.

Each PDB entry, including 1DE5, includes metadata about the structure such as the macromolecule name, the source organism, and the experimental method used to determine the structure. Common methods include X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and cryo-electron microscopy. The entry also provides data quality indicators, chain identifiers, residue and atom coordinates, information on ligands or cofactors, and bibliographic details about the deposition and authors.

Access to 1DE5 and its associated data is provided through the Protein Data Bank’s website, where users can view textual summaries, download structure files in PDB or mmCIF formats, and use structural visualization tools to explore the three-dimensional arrangement. The code 1DE5 is a unique identifier within the database and is used for citation and cross-referencing in scientific work.

Because PDB IDs are assigned as new entries are submitted, the exact biological identity or function associated with 1DE5 depends on the specific structure it represents. Without consulting the entry details, no definitive statement about the protein’s identity or role can be made. If 1DE5 appears in literature, it should be verified against the PDB record for precise information.
