Note: parameters are case insensitive. In the following examples
they are written in upper case for clarity.
- To retrieve a list of all available PDB entries, use the
URL /oca-bin/ocaids?id=ALL.
- To link to the Atlas page, use
/oca-bin/ocashort?id=1ACE. It will retrieve the newest available ID.
- To retrieve an obsolete entry, add the parameter obs=1
to send-pdb, as in this URL
/oca-bin/send-pdb?obs=1&id=1ACE
- To retrieve a gzip compressed PDB file, use
/oca-bin/send-x-pdb?id=4HHB
- Query OCA and get a list of PDB ids entries related to sclerosis with Zn as Associated group,
use /oca-bin/ocaids?di=SCLEROSIS&ht=ZN
(see at the bottom the list of valid query tags)
