BAD BYTE?

The 'citation' title of this structure appears to have a strange character encoding. This encoding is (at least) post 1970's technology, and looks nothing at all like ASCII.

Testing the CIF archive showed that the file has 'UTF-8' character encoding. All the other CIF files in the PDB currently use ASCII (as of 6 February 2008).

As a temporary fix, we manually changed 'ß-mercaptoethanol' to 'beta-mercaptoethanol' to solve technical issues with our upload pipeline.

As time goes on, this will no doubt become more and more of an issue with 'down stream' handling of PDB data. Currently this is just one rotten multi-byte character out of approximately 3 billion others.
