The Protein Geometry Database project on SourceForge hosts the development code for a flexible database for searching protein geometry. The running server is hosted at Oregon State University as the Protein Geometry Database <http://pgd.science.oregonstate.edu/>. This SourceForge site also hosts a library for accessing this data for protein modeling & refinement programs. This project is composed of 2 components:

• conformation_dependent_library: This contains the Python code & data for incorporation into modeling & refinement programs. It is MIT-licensed, which means that as long as you credit our work, you can use the code any way you want. The data files can be downloaded directly (Click the filename, then click the download link next to HEAD). Python interface code is also available through our source-code management system, Subversion (instructions here); angles.py is the primary interface. The names of lengths and angles can be mapped to atoms using this picture. Please contact Donnie Berkholz (grad student) or P. Andrew Karplus (PI) if you'd like to use our code and ideas -- we're interested in collaborations.
• protein_geometry_database: This will contain the code for the Web-based database search application.
