Chemistry/File/PDB version 0.15 =============================== This module reads PDB files. The PDB file format is commonly used to describe proteins, particularly those stored in the Protein Data Bank (L<http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/>). The current version of this module only reads the ATOM and HETATM records, ignoring everything else. This module automatically registers the 'pdb' format with Chemistry::Mol, so that PDB files may be identified and read by Chemistry::Mol->read(). The PDB reader returns a Chemistry::MacroMol object, by default, but the user is free to give any object to the read method, as long as it implements the same interface as Chemistry::Mol.
