BMRB NMR-STAR Atom Table Generator for Amino Acid Chemical Shift Assignments

This form is used to generate tables of atoms for a given protein. The tables are produced in NMR-STAR format and are suitable for including with submissions to BMRB. The NMR-STAR format contains only ASCII characters and can be easily edited. The output will also include the sequence as entered and the sequence in NMR-STAR format 

Presently, the Generator can produce tables for only the common 20 amino acids. If another monomer occurs in the protein, please place an "X" at that point in the sequence.

Please select the NMR-STAR format you wish to use, by default 3.1 will be used:

NMR-STAR 3.1 format NMR-STAR 2.1 format

By default, the Generator produces tables containing every atom in every residue in the protein it's given. Tables containing subsets of the possible atoms can be produced by making choices that limit the output to specific atoms or specific residues. For more information on producing these subsets, see Help.


Enter the residue sequence here, using one-letter codes.

All residues except those selected in the table

Include description of ambiguity codes

Help for the Table Generator

Specific atoms can be listed by selecting the atoms by element and position (eg. alpha carbons), or by class (eg. all side chain atoms) in any combination. All atom selections are combined by producing their logical union. For example, selecting "side chain protons", "side chain nitrogens", and "backbone atoms" will produce a table of atoms satisfying any of those conditions -- everything but carbons in side chains.

The tables generated can be limited to selected residues as well. Again, if several residues are selected, the table will contain residues from all choices made.

If atoms are specified by choosing both specific atoms and specific residues, the tables will be generated by taking the logical intersection of the atoms selected and the residues selected. So, if "backbone atoms", "alanine", and "valine" are chosen, the table will contain only backbone atoms in either alanine or valine.
