Proteomics data repositories.
The field of proteomics, particularly the application of MS analysis to protein samples, is well established and growing rapidly. Proteomic studies generate large volumes of raw experimental data and inferred biological results. To facilitate the dissemination of these data, centralized data repositories have been developed that make the data and results accessible to proteomic researchers and biologists alike. This review of proteomics data repositories focuses exclusively on freely available, centralized data resources that disseminate or store experimental MS data and results. The resources chosen reflect a current "snapshot" of the state of resources available with an emphasis placed on resources that may be of particular interest to yeast researchers. Resources are described in terms of their intended purpose and the features and functionality provided to users.
