Yes, exactly. 2002 papers, the question is how to

2) how to fix omissions in earlier entries
Best, BR
PS: How did the EO confirm deposition - just ask you or the PDB, or some
more automated mechanism?
I don't know exactly. I sent them a copy of the release confirmation
from PDB at EBI. I assume they did a direct check on the web, based
on the entry IDs I sent them.

Subject: Re: [ccp4bb] deposited SF (or not)?
Hi, Bernhard,
I recently published a paper in JBC that was published online only after
the Editorial Office confirmed release of PDB coordinates and structure
factors. Maybe those structures you mention are older and their internal
checking procedures were not yet fully developed ?
Cheers,
Pedro.
