Proteome Commons Tranche is one of the cooler resources on the web. Ever since I met Jayson Falkner, I have liked their approach to open data, and their early support for CC0. Looks like Tranche has hit the big time with the announcement that the resource has been chosen to host all mouse model proteomics data collected by the National Cancer Insititute. From the press release (which you can read in its entirety here).
The innovative scientific file sharing network and data repository, Tranche, has been chosen to host all Mouse Models proteomics data collected by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Mouse Proteomic Technologies Initiative (MPTI) for public release.
In collaboration with Dr. Philip Andrews, University of Michigan, Department of Biological Chemistry and the Tranche team, the NCI MPTI project consortia deposited their mass spectrometry data sets into the Tranche data repository for storage and secure data sharing among participating research labs. See details about the MPTI projects below.
The mouse model data sets are already available on Tranche
