2 Figure 1 PDB Content Growth
Growth in the number of structures deposited per year (red) and total holdings of the PDB (green) are shown from the time that the PDB was founded. The numbers used for year 2004 were projected based on actual entries available at the time of writing this paper. Structure  , DOI: ( /j.str ) Copyright © 2005 Elsevier Ltd Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Complexity of Structures in the PDB
This three-dimensional contour plot displays the PDB holdings with 5 or more chains in the asymmetric unit as a function of time. Prior to 1989 the maximum number of chains per asymmetric unit was limited to 4 (not shown here). The plot shows that there has been an increase in number of structures with a higher number of chains per asymmetric unit between 1989 and The color bar on the right defines the number of structures in each group.
