Dear Chimera people,

Many thanks to all Chimera contributors.

Please may I propose an addition to allow users to access our CATH domains in the same way that they can currently access SCOP domains ( https://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/scop.html )?

PDBs for CATH domains can be loaded from URI's of the form: http://data.cathdb.info/latest_release/pdb/1cukA01

For information, CATH domain IDs contain 7 digits:
  • 1-4 : (eg 1cuk ) : PDB code
  •   5 : (eg A    ) : chain code
  • 6-7 : (eg 01   ) : 2-digit domain number ( '00' for whole chain domains )
We here at CATH would be very happy to provide any other information required to implement this.

Many thanks for your help.

Kind regards,

Tony
