Steve, is this template going to put that giant box on the pages? I generally download the coordinates and make my own images, rather than using theirs. See the Dengue dimer structure on protein structure page.
The PDB ID accession code = 1OAN (1-Oh-A-N, not a zero). Could you implement the template on that page for me to see how it looks? To me, it seems odd to cite the PDB instead of the authors who contributed the structure and published a scientific paper about it. The authors put it on the PDB sothat it can be shared with the world. I have submitted 10 or more structures to the PDB, and when someone cites my structures, they cite my scientific paper in the refences, and then give the PDB accession code for convenience access, but not for actual credit.
