PRIDE Archive
A repository of mass-spectrometry proteomics projects and their associated files.
What PRIDE Archive is
PRIDE Archive, which stands for the PRoteomics IDEntifications Database, is a dedicated repository within the protein domain. It provides public access to mass-spectrometry proteomics projects and their associated files.
The archive stores records focused on experimental proteomics projects, making mass-spectrometry datasets accessible to researchers studying proteins.
How it is organised
PRIDE Archive organizes data as individual proteomics project records, storing the experimental project details alongside their related mass-spectrometry files.
