Dear CCP4 community,
I would like to draw your attention to the Macromolecular Xtallography
Raw Data Repository (MX-RDR). The repository, supported by EU funded
Operational Programme Digital Poland, was created by the
Interdisciplinary Center for Mathematical and Computational Modelling of
University of Warsaw (ICM UW) and the Department of Crystallography of
Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan.
The MX-RDR repository, accessible via website at
https://mxrdr.icm.edu.pl, was designed as a dedicated archive to provide
access to raw diffraction data collected for macromolecular crystals. It
includes tools for creating sets of crystallographic metadata by
combining information extracted directly from diffraction images and
obtained from a PDB deposit and/or user input. Each data set is
characterized by rich metadata, both to facilitate their management and
long-term curation, and to allow effective scientific reuse. The
resource can be filtered using various criteria and all data are
available for unrestricted access and download.
The experimental data deposited in the repository, in the form of raw
diffraction images and metadata, are stored on ICM UW servers with the
highest standards of protection against their loss.
The key features of the MX-RDR repository include:
1. Persistent identifiers. All data sets receive a persistent and
unique DOI identifier that makes it easy to find and cite them.
2. Versioning. Possibility of placing the next, corrected or
supplemented version of the data set.
3. Embargo. Possibility to set a period during which research data
will not be made available to the public.
4. API (Application Programming Interface). Ability to prepare
scripts that use internal API functions.
I encourage everyone to visit our repository at https://mxrdr.icm.edu.pl
and upload (or download) the raw diffraction data. In case of any
questions, please contact me directly ([email protected]).
Best regards,
Miroslaw Gilski
