All, Thanks to everyone who has recently requested access to the JCSG dataset archive. We have a large and growing number of users. Your requests will be handled shortly and you will receive notification via e-mail.
Our registered users fall into 3 main classes: 1) Methods developers who want access to a wide array of test data. 2) Students and postdocs who want datasets for training purposes. 3) Researchers interested in one of our structures, who want access To all the data we have available, including datasets from different constructs or crystal forms that didn't necessarily make it into our final PDB deposition. For those who may still be interested, the dataset archive can be accessed through our structure gallery page: http://www.jcsg.org/prod/scripts/structure_gallery/gallery.shtml The datasets are available without restriction, most of them are Se MAD/SAD or distant homology MR. We do ask you to register and explain why you want access. This is largely for tracking/statistics purposes (we won't be sending you a lot of junk mail). Hopefully in the future we can improve the system to better serve our users. Soon we will be adding diffraction image datasets for *all* our structures as Soon as they are deposited. In the meantime, if there is a dataset you would like that is not currently available through the archive just drop me an e-mail. Suggestions are always welcome. Sincerely, Ashley Deacon Joint Center for Structural Genomics.
