Biomolecular Simulation Database

BioSimDB

BioSim Deposition

This form automatically extracts useful data that describes a molecular dynamics simulation. Whenever you share your data, include this metadata with the simulation files to make your data more findable, accessible, interoperable and reuseable (FAIR).

Instructions:
  • To extract simulation metadata, please upload a topology and corresponding trajectory file/s.
  • Multiple trajectory files can be uploaded with a single associated topology file, both file types are required.
  • Various simulation file formats are accepted and read using MDAnalysis, please ensure your files are compatible.
  • This form uses the biosim-schema to define and group biosim metadata. Missing terms or units? Please consider raising an issue or contributing to the schema.
  • Automatically add metadata associated with each entry using the "Extract metadata" button.
  • Please fill in any missing metadata fields manually where applicable, click on each field name for further information about data field requirements.
  • Two options are available for your extracted simulation metadata:
    1. Download the simulation metadata as a json file and share alongside simulation files.
    2. Submit your simulation files and metadata in one step to BioSimDB, you will be directed to a login page and asked to authorize this application. Please continue and complete the data submission process in BioSimDB.
  • Clear all fields when uploading new files, as manually filled in fields are preserved unless cleared.
Any Problems?
  • This deposition form is in active development, with new features being added, there may be a few bugs 🐞 that have crept in!
  • If you experience any errors or warnings when using this form, please report them here.
