New poster: How Do Drugs Work?

A new poster that explores different kinds of protein-drug structures found in the PDB archive is available for download as a poster (26 x 38", low res 1MB, high res 11 MB) and flyer (8 1/2 x 11", 3 MB).

How Do Drugs Work? was inspired by the success and enduring popularity of 2002's poster on Molecular Machinery: A Tour of the Protein Data Bank.

Written and illustrated in a style similar to the Molecule of the Month series, the poster uses PDB structures to discuss antibiotics and antivirals, chemotherapy, drug metabolism, drugs of signaling proteins, and lifestyle drugs.

The How Do Drugs Work? poster and flyer can be downloaded from the RCSB PDB's Educational Resources page. Printed copies will be distributed at scientific and educational meetings.
