European Life Sciences Infrastructure for Biological Information aims to provide data infrastructure for biological information sharing. It is running a pilot project with proteomics data to enable standardized submission and dissemination of data between major proteomics resources like PRIDE and PeptideAtlas. The pilot allows direct archiving of raw proteomics data in PRIDE for the first time. It uses the EUDAT program for data storage and access and ProteomeXchange as a framework to link proteomics databases together. The goal is to prepare for the rapid growth of life sciences data and keep up with processing and storing the large volumes of raw data being generated.
