Open data resources
Here we list all PaN-related open data resources we know of, either domain-specific resources or open data portals from our individual facilities. We limit this list to data hosting repositories, excluding aggregators like the PaNOSC data portal or the EOSC search portal.
Domain-specific repositories
Protein Structure Database
AlphaFold, the state-of-the-art AI system developed by DeepMind, is able to computationally predict protein structures with unprecedented accuracy and speed. Working in partnership with EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), we’ve released over 200 million protein structure predictions by AlphaFold that are freely and openly available to the global scientific community. Included are nearly all catalogued proteins known to science – with the potential to increase humanity’s understanding of biology by orders of magnitude.

Biological Magnetic Resonance Bank
BMRB makes bio-NMR data FAIR. It collects, annotates, archives, and disseminates spectral and quantitative data derived from NMR spectroscopic investigations of biological macromolecules and metabolites.

Cambridge Structural Database
The Cambridge Structural Database, or CSD, has been curated since 1965 from the published literature, direct deposition, and sources such as patents and PhD theses.
The world’s largest database of small-molecule organic and metal-organic crystal structure data, the CSD is managed by the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC).
Coherent X-ray Imaging Data Bank
CXIDB offers scientists from all over the world a unique opportunity to access data from Coherent X-Ray Imaging (CXI) experiments. The website also serves as the reference for the CXI file format, in which most of the experimental data on the database is stored in.

Electron Microscopy Data Bank
EMDB (the Electron Microscopy Data Bank) is a public repository for electron cryo-microscopy maps and tomograms of macromolecular complexes and subcellular structures. It covers a variety of techniques, including single-particle analysis, electron tomography, sub-tomogram averaging, fibre diffraction and electron crystallography.
API electron microscopy freeHuman Organ Atlas
The Human Organ Atlas is making Hierarchical Phase-Contrast Tomography (HiP-CT) 3D scans of entire organs, with ca. 20 micron voxels, open access.

Protein Ensemble Database
PED is a platform for the intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) community where ensembles and their corresponding primary data can be stored and used as benchmarking datasets to facilitate the development of new ensemble calculation methods.

The Perovskite Database Project
The Perovskite Database Project aims at making all perovskite device data, both past and future, available in a form adherent to the FAIR data principles, i.e. findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. In the initial phase of the project, the project team went through the over 16000 perovskite papers published until the end of February 2020 and extracted data for every single adequately described perovskite solar cell we could find. For papers published after that, the database relies on authors to upload their own data. The project is based around an open database and open-sourced tools enabling anyone, without any programming experience, to interactively explore, search, filter, analyse, and visualise the data. The core of those tools are a set of interactive graphics. The interactive graphics are hosted by MaterialsZone. To reach the graphics, you will need to create a free account by filling out this form. Shortly after filling out the form, you will receive an invitation by email.

Small Angle Scattering Biological Data Bank
SASBDB is a curated repository of freely accessible and fully searchable SAS experimental data, which are deposited together with the relevant experimental conditions, sample details, instrument characteristic and derived models. The quality of deposited experimental data and the accuracy of models obtained from SAS and complementary techniques is assessed by the site developers.
API small angle scattering freeX-Ray Tomography Data Bank
The X-ray Tomography Data Bank or TomoBank, provides a repository of experimental and simulated data sets with the aim to foster collaboration among computational scientists, beamline scientists and experimentalists, to accelerate the development of tomographic reconstruction and 3D visualization methods and to speed up their implementation in the various synchrotron facility data analysis software packages.

Protein Data Bank
Since 1971, the Protein Data Bank archive (PDB) has served as the single repository of information about the 3D structures of proteins, nucleic acids, and complex assemblies.
