Comments.Text: So the ones that do not have more than X% identity to any others in the database, @pippo1980? OK, so what identity? And won't _all_ of them be non-redundant?

Title: Downloading a list of all RCSB-PDB entries
ThreadText: # Downloading a list of all RCSB-PDB entries
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2023-11-04)
  
  I'm trying to download a list of all of the non-redundant protein chain IDs in the RSCB-PDB (not the actual FASTA entries, just the IDs), filtered by some % identity.
  
  Does anyone know how to do this? I haven't been able to figure it out with the [advanced search function](https://www.rcsb.org/search) .

  Did you try RCSB [sequence similarity search](https://www4.rcsb.org/search/advanced/sequence)?
  These two announcement highlight the options you ask about:
  
  * [Improved Searching with New Sequence Identity Cutoff](https://www.rcsb.org/news/5764422199cccf72e74ca34f) (2017)
  * [Remove Redundancy in Search Results](https://www.rcsb.org/news/feature/61b8e5e869569d045d35a9a3) (2015)
  
  Alternatively, if you'd like to calculate identity on your own, you can download sequences of all the PDB entries from:
  <https://files.wwpdb.org/pub/pdb/derived_data/pdb_seqres.txt>
  (270MB).
