The RSCB Protein Data Bank is a United States–based research services organization focused on maintaining and curating the Protein Data Bank archive, which holds experimentally-determined structures of proteins, nucleic acids, and complex assemblies. As part of the wwPDB collaboration, it applies standardized curation and annotation to PDB data and offers a suite of tools and resources that enable users to search by sequence, structure, and function, and to visualize, download, and analyze molecular data. Its user base ranges from students to scientists who rely on accurate, accessible structural information for learning and research. The organization operates within the broader scientific data infrastructure, providing services that support discovery through robust data quality and transparent access. Based in the United States, the RSCB PDB also engages in outreach activities and partnerships, such as a collaboration with Biochemistry Literacy for Kids and Schrödinger to enhance virtual chemistry and biology instruction through 3D modeling.
