-NB: Before CATH v3.0.0 the domain identifier only contained 6 characters as the domain number was a single digit. This was changed due to some chains containing more than 10 domains (although this is very rare).+<code> 
 +CHARACTERS 1-4: PDB Code 
 +The first 4 characters determine the PDB code e.g. 1oai 
 + 
 +CHARACTER 5: Chain Character 
 +This determines which PDB chain is represented. 
 +Chain characters of zero ('0') indicate that the PDB file has no chain field. 
 + 
 +CHARACTER 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.
