  ** Announcement of New Services to the PDB **

  # Secondary Structure Matching
    a tool for protein structure comparison
    URL : http://www.ebi.ac.uk/msd-srv/ssm
    Author: Eugene Krissinel <keb@ebi.ac.uk>  
    This is an interactive service for comparing protein structures in 3D
    based on a new algorithm for common subgraph isomorphism
    
  # Hetgroup interface for accessing the ligands and small molecule 
    dictionary of compounds found in the PDB 
    URL: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/msd-srv/chempdb     
    Author: Dimitris Dimitropoulos <dimitris@ebi.ac.uk>     
    An interface to an MSD reference data warehouse containing a
    consistent and enriched library of all the small molecules and 
    monomers that are refered in any macromolecular structure.


 ** Please Note as of today (Wed Jun 19 2002) the following EBI/MSD 
    services were moved from an SGI server to a SUN server.
    http://oca.ebi.ac.uk/      Integrates data query form for the PDB
    http://pqs.ebi.ac.uk/      Protein Quaternary Structure Query Form
    http://autodep.ebi.ac.uk/  PDB deposition form
    http://capri.ebi.ac.uk/    Home page for protein-protein docking 
                               for structure prediction
    http://iims.ebi.ac.uk/     Some aspects of Electron Microscopy
                               data model (Home Page:
  http://www.ebi.ac.uk/msd/MSDProjects/IIMShome.html)

  We would welcome feedback to msd@ebi.ac.uk on any problems
  user may encounter during this change over period. This weeks
  PDB update is the first under the new operating system.

  Also note that 

    - the service http://relibase.ebi.ac.uk/
      from 1-July-2002 will be temporarily directed to 
         http://relibase.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/
      until a linux version is re-instated at the EBI.

    - the service http://www.ebi.ac.uk:80/dali/ is in the process
      of a port from SGI to Linux and will be maintained after
      1-July-2002 by the MSD group.
