Details

* Columns 7 - 27 and 73 - 80 are identical to the corresponding ATOM/HETATM record.

* The anisotropic temperature factors (columns 29 - 70) are scaled by a factor of 10**4 (Angstroms**2) and are presented as integers.

* The anisotropic temperature factors are stored in the same coordinate frame as the atomic coordinate records.

* ANISOU values are listed only if they have been provided by the depositor.

Verification/Validation/Value Authority Control

The depositor provides ANISOU records, PDB verifies their format.

Relationships to Other Record Types

The anisotropic temperature factors are related to the corresponding ATOM/HETATM isotropic temperature factors as B(eq), as described in the ATOM and HETATM sections.
