entries have been designated for collaboration. It is our hope that as collaboration

is completed all data will be made public.

e AGML concept and its implementation facilitate the management of pro-

teomic data coming from diverse labs using dierent instruments and protocols,

and enable the creation of much needed public 2-DE databases [26]. For this

reason, the AGML format provides a wider community of developers (through

the accompanying open source project) and a larger audience of users (such as

bioinformaticians and statisticians) with a way to access information generated by

2-DE experiments, thus enabling them to develop comprehensive data mining al-

gorithms that allow for ...
