Abstract

PEDRo (Proteome Experiment Data Repository) will be developed as an international standard for proteomics data from a wide range of organisms and technologies. This will involve: (i) aligning the Sample Generation component of PEDRo with MAGE; (ii) developing an environment for web-based data dissemination; (iii) providing qualitative and quantitative analytical tools; (iv) developing a Grid interface to PEDRo; (v) making PEDRo a test-bed for curation and dissemination software. The establishment of an effective standard and associated tools will facilitate sharing of proteomics methodologies and data. This will ease the development of proteomics from a cottage industry, in which labs work just on their own data, into a high-throughput discipline, in which results are made widely available, enabling systematic studies of the proteome in ways that are now impractical.
