Hi Andrew,

The experiment list is in the encodeExp table in the hgFixed database. 
(If you are using the Table Browser to get to it, you can see the 
hgFixed database by changing the "group" to "All Tables.")

The cell type data is not in a table, but it is available in the cv.ra 
file from our ftp server, here:
ftp://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/apache/cgi-bin/encode/cv.ra

There is a handy tool in the Genome Browser source tree, raToTab, that 
will convert the cv.ra file into a tabular format for loading into a 
database.  The source tree is available from:
http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/downloads.html#source_downloads

Run raToTab without any arguments to see its usage statement:

$ raToTab
raToTab - Convert ra file to table.
usage:
    raToTab in.ra out.tab
options:
    -cols=a,b,c - List columns in order to output in table
                  Only these columns will be output.  If you
                  Don't give this option, all columns are output
                  in alphabetical order
    -head - Put column names in header
