Protein Globe

1. Each dot on the globe represents a representative of structural domains found in the Protein Data Bank.
2. Some super-clusters are represented by cartoon figures.
3. The shorter the distance between two points is, the more structurally similar are the two domains.
4. Move the sphere by dragging the mouse, and select a domain by clicking the dot.
5. Zoom out/in by shift+drag up/down.
6. Send the selected domain (dot) to other PDBj services by clicking the buttons on the right.
7. Link to a dot like, for example, http://globe.pdbj.org/globe.cgi?pdbid=1ash&chain=A&domain=1
8. Don't like the colors of the ``sea'' and the ``lands''? Try http://globe.pdbj.org/globe.cgi?s=num where num can be a number between 0 and 59 (inclusive) or ``random''.
