Discipline Specific Repositories

NCBI GenBank
The National Center for Biotechnology Information provides access to biomedical and genomic information.
EMBL-EBI
The European Bioinformatics Unit
INSDC
The International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration os an initiative that operates between DDBJ, EMBL-EBI, and NCBI covering a spectrum of data raw reads through functional annotation and contextual information.
Ref Seq
NCBI Reference Sequence Database. A comprehensive, integrated, non-redundant, well-annotated set of reference sequences including genomic, transcript, and protein.
CCDS
The Consensus CDS (CCDS) project is a collaborative effort to identify a core set of human and mouse protein coding regions that are consistently annotated and of high quality. The long term goal is to support convergence towards a standard set of gene annotations.
RCSB Protein Data Bank
The Protein Data Bank archives information about that 3D shapes of proteins, nucleic acids, and complex assemblies.
