 ==Abstracts from PubMed==
 Abstracts have been aggregated from [http://www.pubmed.gov PubMed] and are not modifiable. Abstracts from PubMed incorporate material contributed or licensed by individuals, companies, or organizations that may be protected by U.S. and foreign copyright laws. All persons reproducing, redistributing, or making commercial use of this information are expected to adhere to the terms and conditions asserted by the copyright holder. Transmission or reproduction of protected items beyond that allowed by fair use as defined in the copyright laws requires the written permission of the copyright owners.
-These abstracts are mostly found on pages titled for PDB codes, or PDB code-titled pages (like [[1hrh]] for example).  These PDB code-titled pages fall under the GNU FDL because the abstract that appears on the page is not actually part of the page.  The abstracts are part of templates that are recalled into the page on-the-fly as the page loads.  The textual content of abstracts are located according to their PMID in the Template namespace at pages like {{Template:ABSTRACT_PMID_7708670}} where the number is the PubMed ID of the abstract.
