The Protein Data Bank (PDB) is the global repository for public-domain experimentally determined 3D biomolecular structural information. The archival nature of the PDB presents certain challenges pertaining to updating or adding associated annotations from trusted external biodata resources. While each Worldwide PDB (wwPDB) partner has made best efforts to provide up-to-date external annotations, accessing and integrating information from disparate wwPDB data centers can be an involved process. To address this issue, the wwPDB has established the PDB Next Generation (or NextGen) Archive, developed to centralize and streamline access to enriched structural annotations from wwPDB partners and trusted external sources. At present, the NextGen Archive provides mappings between experimentally determined 3D structures of proteins and UniProt amino acid sequences, domain annotations from Pfam, SCOP2 and CATH databases and intra-molecular connectivity information. Since launch, the PDB NextGen Archive has seen substantial user engagement with over 3.5 million data file downloads, ensuring researchers have access to accurate, up-to-date and easily accessible structural annotations.Database URL: http://www.wwpdb.org/ftp/pdb-nextgen-archive-site
