==== CATH Domain Names ====

The domain names have seven characters (e.g. 1oaiA00).

^ Characters  ^ Description  ^
| 1-4  | PDB Code  \\ The first 4 characters determine the PDB code e.g. 1oai  |
| 5    | Chain Character \\ This determines which PDB chain is represented.   |
| 6-7  | Domain Number \\ The domain number is a 2-figure, zero-padded number (e.g. '01', '02' ... '10', '11', '12'). Where the domain number is a double ZERO ('00') this indicates that the domain is a whole PDB chain with no domain chopping.  |


==== Hierachy Node Representatives ====

Representative structural domains are selected from the CathDomainList based on
the numbering scheme. For example the S35 sequence family representatives
for superfamily 1.10.8.10 in the above example are 1oaiA00, 1oksA00, 1cuk003,
1p3qQ00 and 1nv8B01 as these are the first instances in the file with the same
superfamily number i.e. 1.10.8.10 but all have different S35 numbers (1 to 5).
