Data items in the STRUCT_BIOL category record details about the structural elements that form each structure of biological significance. A given crystal structure may contain many different biological structures. A given structural component in the asymmetric unit may be part of more than one biological unit. A given biological structure may involve crystallographic symmetry. For instance, in a structure of a lysozyme-FAB structure, the light- and heavy-chain components of the FAB could be one biological unit, while the two chains of the FAB and the lysozyme could constitute a second biological unit.
