Use case overview

A researcher had Comet find the three latest GSK3B protein-ligand complexes in the PDB and open each in Ligand Interaction view.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    In Perplexity's Comet browser, the researcher typed one natural-language instruction asking for the three most recent GSK3B protein-ligand complexes from the PDB, shown in the Ligand Interaction view. Comet found the structures, opened each in its own tab, and set the view without further steps from the person.

  2. How it went

    It opened three structures in separate tabs, ready to analyze. The post names 8QJI and 8AUZ but not the third. It gives no check of whether they were truly the most recent.

  3. Worth knowing

    Full Comet functionality needs a $20/month Perplexity Max subscription, according to the post.

Example prompts

Try with Perplexity Comet
In the Protein Data Bank, find the [number] most recently released structures of [protein, e.g. GSK3B] bound to a ligand. Open each one in the Ligand Interaction view and give me the PDB ID, ligand name, resolution and a link for each. Stop when all are open.
