[Bioperl-l] PDB Parser

[neeti somaiya]

Hi,

I have done it currently as follows :

 while ( my $struc = $in->next_structure() )
                {
                        my $title;

                        my $pdb_id = $struc->id;
                        print "Structure ", $pdb_id,"\n";

                        my $ac = $struc->annotation();

                        foreach my $key ( $ac->get_all_annotation_keys() )
                        {
                                if($key eq "title")
                                {
                                        my @values =
$ac->get_Annotations($key);
                                        foreach my $value (@values)
                                        {
                                                $title = $value->as_text;
                                                chomp($title);
                                                if($title =~ /Value\: (.*)/)
                                                {
                                                        $title = $1;
                                                }
                                                $title =~ s/\s+/ /g;

                                                print "Title ",$title,"\n";
                                                last;
                                        }
                                        last;
                                }
                  }
}

Is this ok?
