As announced previously, wwPDB, in collaboration with the PDBx/mmCIF Working Group, has set plans to extend the length of accession codes (IDs) for PDB and Chemical Component Dictionary (CCD) entries in the future.
PDB entries containing these extended IDs will not be supported by the legacy PDB file format. See previous announcement: https://www.wwpdb.org/news/news?year=2021#607760112786e73a79c76f9d

New instrumentation in Proteomics core facility

In March, two new high resolution mass spectrometers were installed in our core facility thanks to CIISB project (CZ.02.01.01/00/23_015/0008175). First we upgraded our timsTOF Pro 2 instrument to timsTOF HT improving our performance in whole proteome analyses with faster scanning speed and a wider dynamic range. In second, Ultra 2 mass spectrometer was installed. This timsTOF instrument opens doors to deeper analysis of samples with limited amount of input material due to its ultimate sensitivity.

Launch of database for raw molecular biophysics data - MBDB

We have launched a public database where you can store your raw data with rich annotation of samples and conditions of measurements.

The Molecular Biophysics Database currently accepts depositions of raw measurement files from MST, BLI, SPR and ITC.

We invite you to deposit your data, make it findable, searchable and reusable at https://mbdb-data.org/

MBDB has been developed within the EU project MOSBRI by a team of developers mainly from the Institute of Biotechnology and CESNET. Its development continues and we welcome comments and suggestions at mbdb@ibt.cas.cz.
