Hi Gloria,
You can paste your protein sequence directly into the text search box of the RCSB PDB website (http://www.rcsb.org), and choose one of the sequence search autosuggestions.
You can also to try the PSI-BAST search to find more distantly related homologs: click on the Sequence option in the top search bar and then choose “options”.
On the advanced search page choose “PSI-BLAST” as the search tool.

Subject: [ccp4bb] structural search for homologs in pdb?
We have a protein sequence that probably contains OB folds. What is the best way to search for the top structural homologs to this sequence in the pdb? G
